The mum of Alesha MacPhail is to take part in the charity Kiltwalk in her daughter's memory.

Georgina Lochrane will be taking part in the annual event from Clydebank to Moss O Balloch Park in Loch Lomond.

Alesha, 6, was murdered by Aaron Campbell in Bute last year.

She was described as a fun loving child with an enthusiasm for Highland dancing, something her mum wants to pay tribute to in her support of a bereavement charity.

Ms Lochrane is raising money for Families and Friends Affected by Murder and Suicide (FAMS) who supported her throughout losing her daughter and the emotional court case of Campbell, who was sentenced to at least 27 years in jail.

She told the Daily Record: “I’m doing it for FAMS but also for myself and for Alesha. I can’t wait to get on my kilt.

“Alesha loved all the Highland dancing stuff.”

The mum from Airdrie also said FAMS have given her “incredible” support.

Ann Marie Cocozza, FAMS co-founder, said: “Georgina is an inspiration and although she has her dark, dark times, she is determined to make a difference.”
