Girl, 4, walks after Hungary trip

Molly can walk if she is holding on to something

The parents of a four-year-old girl from Leicestershire say they have been overwhelmed to see their daughter learn how to walk.

Molly Brown, from Wigston, who has a condition similar to cerebral palsy, learnt to take her first steps at the Peto Institute in Budapest, Hungary.

She can now stand without help and walk while holding on to something.

Molly's mother Debbie said it had been very emotional to see her daughter make such progress in less than a month.

She said: "Three weeks out there and Molly has achieved so much. It has been wonderful.

"Words cannot express how much she's learnt and gained from it all.

"She's actually taken several steps on her own whilst she's held on to parallel bars and she's learned self-help skills."

The Browns' trip was paid for by Leicestershire charity Heart Link.

Molly's daily regime is being translated from Hungarian into English and the family plan to continue with the programme now they are back home.
