A toddler is making a steady recovery after the trauma of falling on a barbecue last week.

Luii Duncan, two-and-a-half, will be scarred for life after she tripped on to the discarded cooker in Beddington Park last week.

Friends and relatives managed to pull the tray off her, but not until after it had burned to her stomach, hands and face.

Rosemary Duncan, Luii's mother, said it is still touch and go whether she needs a skin graft.

She said: "It looks like she may need one on her stomach, and also her arms.

"She is getting there and hopefully she will be back home tomorrow, she is sleeping a bit better now thanks to the painkillers.

"We should know soon how fast her recovery will be."
