Worcester’s LGBTQ+ café and community space in Trinity Passage has delivered a rallying call for the community to come together and pay their respects.
“We need to come together and show support for our Trans family more than ever with the current political climate,” the post on Facebook.
“Wrap up warm, bring friends and face masks.”
Cheshire Police said Brianna’s family, who described her as ‘strong, fearless and one of a kind’, had been ‘overwhelmed by the messages of support, positivity and the compassion across the country and beyond’.
A fund-raising page set up to support Brianna’s family has raised more than £100,000.
