Acid attack victims: 'I can still smell the burning'

A growing number of people are being attacked by acid. New figures, obtained by 5 Live investigates show there were 646 acid attacks in England and Wales last year. This is over three times higher than in 2013. The majority of these attacks were in London, followed by Greater Manchester and Essex.
Along with 5 Live Investigates, we brought together two acid attack survivors - Adele Bellis and Jabed Hussain - to talk about the impact their experiences have had on their lives.
