An Alton Towers crash victim who lost her right leg in a horrific roller coaster accident two years ago has made an appearance at London Fashion Week.

Miss Balch lost her leg in 2015 when the Smiler ride malfunctioned and smashed into a carriage ahead, leaving her and four others seriously injured.

She told the Sunday People of her injuries earlier in 2017: "In the beginning especially, there were days when I didn't want to be here any more. I'd think, 'What's the point? I'm not going to be able to live my life to the full or love my life ever again'."

Balch later tweeted: "Can't believe I got to walk for TEATUMJONES at LondonFashionWeek."
