Heather Mills: Veganism helped me recover after I lost my leg

The number of vegans in the UK has risen 700% in the last two years. One of the first high profile people to champion the lifestyle was model Heather Mills.

Surprisingly, Heather says it wasn’t for ethical reasons - she went vegan to help her recovery after losing her leg in a motorcycle accident.

At the time she says she was a laughing stock but now, as more and more people are recognising the benefits, she says that she’s had the last laugh.
