A fast food meal after a night out in 2017 changed the course of Lizzi Jordan’s life forever, but has opened the door to new opportunities.
When she was a student studying psychology at Royal Holloway, University of London, Jordan, then 19, contracted a rare strain of E. coli bacteria through food poisoning.
It left her in a coma and fighting for survival, and when she eventually woke, she was blind.
But after hitting what she describes as “rock bottom” Jordan, from Guildford, has set herself new challenges and is aiming to be part of the GB Para-cycling team at next year’s Paris Paralympics.
