A boy and a girl, both aged 15, were charged with the murder by Cheshire Police.
In order to remember the teen's life, vigils are being held all over the UK this week in memoriam.
On Tuesday evening candlelit vigils were held at St George’s Hall in Liverpool and College Green in Bristol, and it is believed that Glasgow will hold its own vigil on Thursday, February 16 at George Square.
