A young man who was paralysed as a teenager has defied the odds and is now living his dream with his family by his side.
Aaron Yates spent six months in hospital after being diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis - an inflammation of both sides of the spinal cord. But despite being told he may never walk again, the "turning point" made him appreciate the "smaller things" and he is now living out his lifelong dream.
The Yates family has always dreamed of opening their own hospitality venue, but their wishes came true after they opened the Yada Prescot bar and Grill on August 19. Situated on Eccleston Street, the business has already grown in popularity in just three weeks.
