How a Manchester girl overcame paralysis diagnosis
A dancer who suffered life changing injuries and lost the use of both her legs has said rejoining her childhood dance school was like "coming home".
Claire Booth, 38, first joined Alyson Livesey's Academy of Dance in Manchester when she was four years old and was there for 14 years.
But her dreams of being a professional dancer were shattered when in her 20s she was hit by a drunk driver and now has to use a wheelchair.
After seeing an advert for a new adult tap dance class at her former school she decided to "give it a go" and said it had brought out the "cheeky, silly side" she had as a child.
