A ‘much loved’ university student died after taking MDMA at a Halloween rave in Liverpool, an inquest has heard. 

Olivia Wojciechowska, 19, attended the party at Blackstone Street Warehouse last year where she consumed the deadly drug. 

After suffering an apparent seizure, the second year business student was rushed to the Royal Hospital Liverpool for treatment.

However, after her condition deteriorated, she was transferred to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham where she passed away on November 7.

An inquest at Liverpool Coroners’ Court on Monday heard that Olivia, who attended Liverpool John Moores University, went to the Halloween-themed rave on November 1 last year. 

She had taken a taxi to her friend, Scarlett Tonna’s home, where she told Ms Tonna that she had MDMA (ecstasy) ‘in her possession,’ according to the Liverpool Echo. 

Olivia and Ms Tonna then went to the party in Vauxhall at approximately 4am, where Ms Tonna said she saw Olivia take the drug between ‘one to two hours later.’ 

Another person in attendance also said they saw Olivia take the drug, before she collapsed at around 10.05pm.

Olivia was then taken to a welfare tent, where bags of ice were used by staff in an attempt to control her temperature.

An ambulance was called shortly thereafter and she was brought to Royal Liverpool Hospital, arriving at 11.45pm.

Olivia was admitted to the hospital’s emergency department, where she was subsequently intubated and placed on a ventilator.

She received medication and was placed on dialysis after her liver and kidney functions deteriorated. 

On November 3, Olivia was approved for a liver transplant. She was transferred to Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth hospital two days later.

However, a CT scan on November 5 confirmed Olivia was ‘unlikely to survive.’ She died on November 7, two days before the transplant was due to take place.

A post-mortem exam revealed her cause of death to be ‘multi-organ failure, acute liver failure and drug consumption.’ 

Coroner Helen Rimmer said:  ‘I accept the medical cause of death as multi-organ failure, acute liver failure and drug intoxication. She had consumed ecstasy at a rave event in Liverpool on November 1 with fatal consequences.’

A tribute site set up in Olivia’s memory has since been flooded with messages and memories dedicated to her. 

One person described her as a ‘special girl,’ with an ‘unforgettable, high pitched crazy laugh,’ that filled the room. 

Another wrote that Olivia had ‘a way of making everything feel lighter,’ who made their ‘world feel less scary and even made the most ordinary moment into special ones.’ 

A further message described Olivia as ‘an example for any young woman.’  

Following her death, registered organ donor Olivia donated her lungs and heart.

Her funeral took place on December 12 at St Colmcille’s Church in East Belfast, Northern Ireland.
