A mum is ‘heartbroken’ after her daughter lost several fingers in a freak accident involving a fly-tip. Kerry Ratcliffe’s daughter Bella, then aged 8, suffered the life-changing injuries in April, while playing in an alleyway behind the family home on Kestrel Avenue in Clifton, Salford.
Mum Kerry, 34, says Bella was ‘making a den’ when she stepped on a garden table which she says was dumped in the ginnel. “Bella was standing on a table, it wobbled, and her fingers came off,” Kerry told the Manchester Evening News.
She added that Bella sadly lost her digits when she tried to grab onto a fence to break her fall.

She was in surgery for 12 hours to reattach. It did not go to plan.” Despite Bella, now 9, ‘adapting really well’, and returning to school in what Kerry says is a ‘massive step’, the mum-of-five says she is ‘still at a loss as to what’s happened’.
