Young woman moved to Manchester to pursue her dream - then she was found dead

A young woman tragically found dead in Salford Quays was an 'incredibly gifted' student with hopes for a future in film. Charlotte Burlace-Colquhoun, 20, had 'dreamed of moving to Manchester' before she was discovered in the water on the morning of December 20.

Her family paid a heartfelt tribute to Charlotte, also known as 'Lottie' to her close friends, after her death, describing her as a 'kind' and 'creative' individual who 'loved people'.

An inquest into Charlotte's death was opened at Bolton Coroner's Court on January 6. A full inquest into her death is to be held later this year. Greater Manchester Police said there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding her death after they were called to the scene at Central Bay.
