The mum of the four children who tragically lost their lives in an arson attack in Walkden last year has said thank you to the hundreds of people who turned out for their funeral on Friday.

Demi, Bradon, Lacie and Lia Pearson were killed when their home was petrol bombed just before Christmas 2017.

On Friday, they were laid to rest as hundreds of people lined the streets of Walkden to say goodbye to them.

Michelle was due to attend the funeral but at the last minute, was too ill to make it.

Her mum, and the childrens' grandma, Sandra Lever, took to Facebook to share a message from Michelle.
