Honouring Olivia Pratt-Korbel’s 10th birthday

That this House notes that this day, Tuesday 13th June 2023, would have been West Derby schoolgirl Olivia Pratt-Korbel’s 10th birthday; notes that Olivia is sorely missed by her family and friends since her young life was tragically taken from her in a shooting last August which shocked the entire nation; recognises the efforts of Olivia’s mum Cheryl and the local community in Dovecot to ensure that Olivia’s name is never forgotten through the creation of a memorial park bearing her name in Kingsheath Avenue in addition to a refurbished community hub in the old labour club known locally as The Bunker to give local people of all ages a safe place to meet and access resources and support for young families away from criminal gangs in one of the most deprived areas of Liverpool; places on record the determination and efforts of local residents including Cheryl and Olivia’s aunty Kerrie-Ann and Stephen Blennerhassett in forming the Kingsheath and District Veterans Association (KADVA) to ensure the memorial park and community hub becomes a reality; notes that the Member for Liverpool West Derby sits on the board of KADVA and gives it his full support; and calls on the generosity of all who are able, to donate to Olivia's memorial park fundraiser.
