A mum has issued a warning over jellyfish stings after a trip to the beach.
Kate Lally said she had a close call with a number of jellyfish during a walk on Formby beach on Thursday. The mum has previously opened up on her experiences with jellyfish at the popular visitor spot, sharing pictures of the nasty stings that made her think twice about going for a dip in the sea.
Kate, a Liverpool Echo reporter, described her previous experiences as an "attack" due to jellyfish swarming her as soon as she entered the water. Her right arm was stung first, then both upper legs all in a matter of minutes. The mum-of-one followed NHS guidance and the stings cleared days after the painful ordeal.
