WATCH: The beautiful moment an eight-year-old Mirfield amputee rides her bike for the first time
Eight-year-old Maisie Catt, from Mirfield, had the lower parts of both legs amputated after a battle with meningitis when she was five.
Having visited the Streetbikes charity which teaches youngsters to ride, Maisie was using a hand-powered bike until one of the volunteers there, an engineer, created an amputee-friendly bicycle that Maisie can use.
