Sophie, alongside her boyfriend, was the victim of an unprovoked attack by a group of teenagers in Stubbylee Park, Bacup, in August 2007. She was taken to hospital unconscious and later died of her injuries. Her death led to the formation of the Sophie Lancaster Foundation, with Bloodstock Festival also dedicating their second stage to her memory.
