ON Thursday, July 17 I fell after tripping in Hanover Buildings, Southampton.

I would like to thank the many people who came to my assistance, especially Stuart, a bus driver, Grange, a nurse and the staff of Betfred who kindly provided me with a chair and a supply of tissues to mop up the blood, a young mother who provided a clean disposable nappy and also the young lady who helped my sister-in-law to use her mobile to ring my husband as she was so shocked she needed help.
