Scots mum of tot who fell in scalding bath warns parents over dangers of tap water burns

A Scots mum whose daughter fell into a scalding bath when she was a toddler has urged other parents to be aware of the dangers of tap water burns.

Little Courtney Abrahams was just three-years-old when she tumbled into the water after reaching for a toy in 2018. The tot was left with more than a quarter of her body covered in blisters and had to spend weeks wrapped in bandages to heal her injuries.

The youngster still struggled to walk two months after the incident. Four years on from the accident, Courtney's mum, Chloe, wants other mums and dads to be aware of the dangers of scalding hot water in light of Burns Awareness Day.
