Manchester attack: All the victims confirmed dead after the arena suicide bombing

Tributes have been paid to victims of the suicide bombing at Manchester Arena that killed 22 and wounded 64.

The youngest person known to have died is eight-year-old Saffie Roussos, who was at the concert with her mother.

Of the injured, 20 are still under "critical care" in hospital, some with major organ damage and potential loss of limbs.

Here is what we know so far about the victims:

Chloe Rutherford and Liam Curry

Teenage sweethearts Chloe Rutherford and Liam Curry “wanted to be together forever, and now they are”, their families have said in a statement following the couple's deaths in the Manchester Arena bombings.

“They were perfect in every way for each other and were meant to be. They were beautiful inside and out to ourselves and our families, and they were inseparable,” the families said in a statement released through Greater Manchester Police.

Ms Rutherford, 17, and Mr Curry, 19, were among 22 people who died after Salman Abedi detonated an improvised explosive device outside an Ariana Grande concert on Monday night.

Their families added: “On the night our daughter Chloe and our son Liam died, their wings were ready but our hearts were not.

“Chloe always described herself as ditzy who Liam adored and would do anything for, including dealing with Chloe's demands for chocolate.

“They lived to go to new places together and explore different cities. They wanted to be together forever and now they are.”

Georgina Callander

The 18-year-old Ariana Grade “superfan” was the first victim of the bombing to be confirmed dead.

Described by her friends as a “living angel”, the student from Whittle-le-Woods in Lancashire was on the cusp of finishing the second year of her health and social care course.

John Atkinson

Tributes were also paid to 28-year-old Atkinson from Bury in Greater Manchester, who is believed to have died in the attack as he left the venue.

Friends of Mr Atkinson set up a fund for his family, which received more than £1,000 in less than an hour after being established.

Saffie Roussos

The third victim of the bombing to be confirmed was eight-year-old Saffie, described as a “beautiful little girl in every aspect of the world” by her head teacher.

Her mother, Lisa, and older sister, Ashlee, are both reportedly being treated for shrapnel injuries in separate hospitals.

Alison Howe and Lisa Lees

The two mothers were waiting to pick up their 15-year-old daughters in the foyer of the Manchester Arena, where the explosion took place.

Howe, 45, was from Royton, and Lees, 47, from Oldham near Manchester. Their daughters are said to be safe.

Olivia Campbell

Olivia's family spent Tuesday frantically searching for the 15-year-old from Bury.

“RIP my darling precious gorgeous girl Olivia Campbell taken far far to soon go sing with the angels and keep smiling mummy loves you so much,” wrote her mother in a Facebook post in reaction to news of her death.

Angelika and Marcin Klis

The married couple from Poland, who lived in York, both lost their lives in the attack while collecting their two daughters from the concert, who are both safe.

Their daughter Alex, a 20-year-old student, made an appeal on Facebook for the whereabouts of her parents, who had taken a selfie of themselves in the city centre that day.

Kelly Brewster

A 32-year-old from Sheffield, Ms Brewster reportedly died when she “heroically shielded” her young niece and sister from the suicide bomb blast as they left the concert.

She had travelled to the concert with her relatives the day after she put down a deposit on a house with Ian Winslow, her boyfriend, who confirmed her death in a Facebook post.

Martyn Hett

The death of Mr Hett, a PR manager from Stockport, was confirmed by his boyfriend Russell Hayward on Twitter.

Mr Hayward said the ”iconic and beautiful“ 29-year-old, who had a large following on Twitter and had appeared on reality TV shows Come Dine With Me and Tattoo Fixers, had not survived the attack.

Nell Jones

Nell, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Goostrey, a village 18 miles south of Manchester, was at the Ariana Grande concert on crutches after a previous ligament injury.

One of her classmates was also ”badly injured“ in the blast, said the head teacher of Nell's school, Holmes Chapel Comprehensive.

Jane Tweddle-Taylor

The "truly wonderful" mother-of-three was waiting for a friend's daughter outside the arena when the suicide bomber struck.

The principal of the school in Blackpool where Jane Tweddle-Taylor, 51, worked as a reception described her as a “well-loved member of staff”.

Jane Bailey, head of South Shore Academy in Blackpool, said: “Jane was a truly wonderful friend and colleague to all of us at South Shore Academy. As our receptionist, she was in many ways the public face of the school and she represented us amazingly in this role.”

Elaine McIver

An off-duty female officer was also killed in the blast. Her partner, Paul, is critically ill and their two children were also injured.

The family said in a statement: "Elaine was a much loved daughter, sister, Auntie, friend and colleague, the best we could ever have wished for.

"She was everyone's friend, thoughtful beyond belief with an effervescent and outgoing personality."

Michelle Kiss

The family of a 45-year-old woman from Lancashire has confirmed she was killed.

Her neice Laura Murray wrote on Facebook: “It's true thank you everyone for your help we are all heartbroken”.

Ms Kiss, from Lancashire, was “a loving wife to Tony, mother to Dylan, Elliot and Millie, as well as daughter to Mick and Christine and sister to Nichola”, her family said.

They added: “She has been taken away from us, and all that love her, in the most traumatic way imaginable. We hope to draw from the courage and strength she showed in her life to get through this extremely difficult time.”

Eilidh MacLeod

Fourteen-year-old Eilidh MacLeod had travelled to Manchester from the Isle of Barra in the Outer Hebrides with a school friend, Laura MacIntyre.

Ms MacIntyre, 15, was seriously injured and is receiving treatment at a Manchester hospital, but Ms MacLeod's family issued a statement confirming her death on Thursday.

The statement said: “Our family is devastated and words cannot express how we feel at losing our darling Eilidh.

“Eilidh was vivacious and full of fun. She loved all music whether it was listening to Ariana or playing the bagpipes with her pipe band."

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon told MSPs that Police Scotland family liaison officers were providing support to the teenagers' families.

Wendy Fawell

Fifty-year-old mother Wendy Fawell attended the Ariana Grande concert with her daughter Charlotte.

However, her death was confirmed by a friend on Facebook later that evening.

Debbie McDowell wrote: “I am heartbroken beyond belief. I have lost my best friend and confident (sic) Wendy Fawell."

The local community in Ms Fawell's home town, Otley, held a vigil for her on Wednesday night.

Sorrell Leczkowski

Fourteen-year-old Sorrell, a year 9 student at Allerton High School in Leeds, was confirmed dead on Wednesday evening.

She had gone to the concert with her mother and grandmother, who are both being treated for their injuries.

Her grandfather told The Metro she dreamed of becoming an architect and wanted to study at Columbia University in New York.

He added: ‘Sorrell was only 14, but she was our rock, she kept us all grounded."

Courtney Boyle and Philip Tron

A 19-year-old student at Leeds Beckett University and her stepfather were killed in the blast, family members said on Thursday.

Ms Boyle, and her stepfather Philip Tron, 32, were both from Gateshead.

Courtney's mother said: "My stunning amazing beautiful daughter you were my rock you made me so proud with all you had achieved.

"My gorgeous crazy Philip, you made my world a happy place, and now you are both my angels flying high in the sky."
