The mum of a 17-month-old boy who suffered terrible burns after tipping hot tea over himself has spoken of the traumatic minutes after the accident - and how hero paramedics battled to help him.
Beth Smith, 24, and her partner Rob Carruthers were in their kitchen when little Rory managed to get through his baby gate and tip the cup of hot drink on to his head and body.
As he screamed in pain, they dialled the emergency services and were warned by a North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) operator he could fall unconscious from the pain or shock.
