A desperate mother is still frantically searching for her teenage daughter, who has not been in touch since the Manchester Arena terror attack.
Charlotte Campbell last heard from 15-year-old Olivia shortly before Ariana Grande came on stage on Monday night.
โI last had contact with her at half past eight last night. She was at the concert, sheโd just seen the support act and said she was having an amazing time and thanking me for letting her go,โ Ms Campbell told BBC Radio 4โs Today programme.
โShe was with her friend Adam โ Adam was found about half an hour ago, heโs in hospital but Olivia has not been found yet.โ
Ms Campbell said she had been at home โphoning everybody โ hospitals, police, all these centres that the children have been put inโ.
โHer dad is actually in Manchester looking for her. Iโve got friends out looking for her, Iโve got people I donโt even know out looking for her.
โIโve got people messaging me saying โLook, weโve got her photo and weโre out looking for her โ weโll get in contact with you if we see herโ.
โIโm just hearing nothing โ her phoneโs dead.โ
Ms Campbell posted a picture of her daughter on Facebook saying โplease share my daughter is still missing with no news on herโ.
She said social media had been โwonderfulโ and thanked those who were helping with the search.
