Ashlee Good, 38, was among six people killed by Joel Cauchi at Westfield Bondi Junction on 13 April. Her daughter Harriet, who was nine months old at the time of the attack, was also injured.

Australian authorities say the stabbing was "mental health" related, but they believe Cauchi targeted women.

Thanking those who had sent donations, Good's partner Dan Flanagan said "the overwhelming support, kindness and generosity" his family had received has given them "strength".

Mass killings are rare in Australia, and the attack - at one of the country's biggest and most popular shopping centres - stunned the world.
