11-year-old with cerebral palsy walks catwalk at London Fashion Week
11-year-old Katie wowed onlookers by walking the catwalk at London Fashion Week, just a year after taking her very first steps, unaided. She has cerebral palsy and has been in a wheelchair for most of her life. She's had multiple gruelling operations in recent years, to straighten her feet and legs.
Katie says walking down the catwalk was 鈥渟o much fun鈥 and that her friends are really happy for her. She told 5 Live鈥檚 Tony Livesey and Anna Foster she wants to carry on modelling.
Her mum Clare said Katie 鈥渨anted to be a model from when she was very little鈥.
