The Doweys will be involved in a launch campaign in Edinburgh later, warning young people about the dangers of sextortion.

As well as telling them about the risks of sharing intimate images online, the campaign – which will bring together Police Scotland, Crimestoppers and the Scottish Government – will give them advice on what to do and where to go for help if someone is being targeted by criminals.

Mark and Ros told BBC News that they have a message for any young people who find themselves victims of sextortion.

The couple said: “There’s nothing worth taking your life over, so if something happens to you, put the phone down and go get someone you trust and tell them it happened.” .

“We can’t let this happen to more kids, which happened to Murray.”
