Ten years ago today Anthony Walker was murdered in an unprovoked racially motivated attack in a park in Huyton, Merseyside.

Anthony was 18-years-old and studying for A levels. Michael Barton and his cousin Paul Taylor got life sentences for his murder.

Ten years on and his family say they live with Anthony's death every day.

Soon after his murder they set up the Anthony Walker Foundation to combat race and hate crime and to promote diversity across Merseyside and the North West.
