A woman left unable to use her legs after fuelling a nos addiction with 600 canisters a week has backed the decision to make possession a criminal offence. Kerry-Anne Donaldson, 26, now uses a wheelchair after 'abusing' nitrous oxide (nos), also known as 'laughing gas', for years.
The former receptionist, from Newham, East London, says she became addicted to the high. It was announced last week (March 27) that nitrous oxide would become a class C drug, making possession illegal.
The policy has been criticised by some campaigners who say the ban will not stop people taking it and will drive supply into criminal hands. But Kerry-Anne says she agrees with the move.
