Courageous disabled sailor calls in on Exmouth on voyage

A brave young disabled sailor has been welcomed by Exmouth sailing club during her fund-raising journey around the coast.

17 year old Natasha Lambert has cerebral palsy and can't use her hands, so she controls her boat with special equipment she can operate with her mouth.

She set off from the Isle of Wight, where she lives, on Thursday, and called at Exmouth before sailing on to Wales.

Her journey ends there but not her challenges - she'll use a special walking aid to climb the highest mountain in southern Britain.
