Nicole’s mum Jackie has spent the past number of years striving to honour her daughter’s legacy by pushing for new anti-cyberbullying legislation. These regulations named 'Coco’s Law' in reference to Nicole will, she hopes, spare other families the terrible fate visited upon hers.

"We thank and we are so grateful to Jackie for joining us today and for speaking with the Loreto Parents Association last night (Tuesday)," the Loreto posted to social media.
