It's now six months since the fatal crush incident at Brixton Academy - but the families of those who died are still waiting for answers around what happened.

Like Rebecca's family, Gaby's relatives have photographs and memories on social media to help remember Gaby.

"My heart feels like it's broken. It's never going to mend again. I wish it had been me rather than her because she had a life to live and at least I've lived 60 years."Gaby's sister Nina described her sibling as "a great soul". The 32-year-old said: "She had a lot of passion in there. She was a real laugh. She was just so loving and caring."

"She never would have walked out there knowing someone else was in danger or needed help," Nina adds. "She would have stayed and that's what she did. She's a hero, she really is. "We're angry that there are things that haven't gone right that has led to people dying or being seriously injured and we just want those people to have justice," Nina says.
