Quadruple amputee who had double hand transplant to take on North Coast 500 for charity
A quadruple amputee who was the first person in Scotland to have a double hand transplant is preparing to travel along the North Coast 500.
Mother-of-one Cor Hutton is embarking on the 500-mile-route on a second-hand scooter in a bid to raise money for the charity she founded, Finding Your Feet.
