Ellen Hogan suffered serious injuries after she was involved in a car crash but was not wearing a seat belt
Ellen Hogan, who was sat in the back, removed her seat belt to reach something on the floor moments before the car hit a tree just outside Woodhall Spa in Lincolnshire in June 2022. Now she wants others to learn from her experience after admitting her recovery was something "no one expected, not even my family".“For the first year I was so down, so depressed and low. I just thought I’m not going to be able to do anything.”
“It’s a potentially life-saving message and using Ellen’s voice to reach people, both online and in schools, will really help convey the difference a seat belt makes.”
