Tributes have been paid to a Manchester couple who died on their holiday earlier this month when they were swept away by flash floods while hiking in Mallorca.

Alexander Barrett, 32, a climbing instructor, and his girlfriend, Sarah Jane Thompson, 26, were found dead after a search and rescue operation on the Spanish island

The Stockport rock-climbing gym Awesome Walls, where Barrett worked as an instructor, paid tribute to the couple.

“Alex was known for his warm smile, kind nature and endless psych [sic] in all aspects of life. Whether it was in climbing or not, he was always keen to celebrate people’s achievements with a fist bump and a good laugh,” the gym said on Instagram

“Sarah was an Awesome Walls regular and a welcome sight to all who she crossed paths with. She was kind, joyful and would regularly make friends with people during her climbing sessions.”
