Liverpool-born David Barden died when his hotel collapsed in the 6.8-magnitude quake in Morocco.

A retired teacher who was cycling the world to raise money for charity was killed in the Moroccan earthquake, leaving family "devastated".

Daughter Sarah Barden, 41, said she received a text message from her father, who she described as her "best friend", just 40 minutes before the quake hit. The morning after the quake she said she frantically called all the hotels in the area asking for news of him and a local hotelier Hamza Boumazough helped go in search for Mr Barden.

Ms Barden paid tribute to Hamza, who lost his home and business in the quake, saying: "Hamza and the community there have lost so much, I can't thank them enough for helping me and my family."
