Rebekka Kelly, 30, needs round-the-clock care after she was left with a broken back, pelvis and permanent nerve damage after the holiday horror crash in Antalya.

She was halfway through her trip with eldest son Sonny, 10, when she decided to book a £75, two-hour safari buggy tour through a TUI rep. During thetrip Rebekka was flung off the side of the 164ft (50m) cliff.

She was rushed to a private hospital in Turkey where she was treated for over three weeks, had two surgeries on her spine and had to have her lungs drained. Rebekka has also fractured six of her vertebrates, fractured her pelvis, had internal bleeding and permanent nerve damage in her lower back.
