Manchester Arena attack survivor Freya Lewis spoke about her best friend Nell Jones and how she is 'living life for the two of them' as it approaches the fifth anniversary of the incident. Nell, 14, was one of 22 people murdered in the terror attack on May 22 2017.
Freya, of Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, was three metres from the blast and suffered 29 injuries, including two broken legs, a broken arm and facial injuries, but has since made a remarkable recovery. This Sunday, on the five-year anniversary, she will take part in the Great Manchester Run to raise funds for Royal Manchester Children's Hospital - that she credits with 'saving her life'.
On the night of the bombing, Nell told Freya that it was the best day of her life and the 19-year-old appeared on ITV's Lorraine this morning (May 19) to pay an emotional tribute to her close friend. She said: "It’s something I’ll forever be grateful for because I’d never seen her so happy.
