The waterpark where a four-year-old girl died had the 'strongest wave pool' swimmers had ever felt, according to a mother there on the day.

Staffordshire Police were called to Waterworld in Stoke-on-Trent on Monday to reports of a girl in a critical condition.

The child was rushed to hospital for further treatment but sadly passed away a short while later.

Parents of children who had been at the 'lagoon area of the aqua park' where the tragic event took place have since spoken out, sharing their 'heartbreak'.

A mother, who took her three children to the waterpark that day told the Telegraph she had never been to one with such a strong wave pool.
