Kyra Hill, an 11-year-old girl from Croydon, drowned at the Liquid Leisure water park during a birthday party in August 2022. An inquest found she was unlawfully killed due to gross breaches of health and safety regulations, compounded by the park's lack of necessary planning permissions for its activities. Originally permitted for water skiing and windsurfing, Liquid Leisure operated as an aqua theme park without approval. The venue faced significant fines and enforcement notices preceding Kyra's death, highlighting ongoing safety concerns and regulatory failures that continue to impact its legal standing.
