A couple passing by with their child and dog stopped to help her and walked her back to her house, which is about two miles from where she had the accident.

Marjorie, who was later taken,to A&E at Warwick Hospital by her husband John, said her mind had gone blank and that she could not remember the couple's names only that the family were on their way to Jephson Gardens.

She contacted The Courier to publicly thank the family and to let them know she is now recovering.

She said: "I just want to thank them for being so kind and thoughtful and for doing all they could to help me.

"I was so dazed at the time that I can't remember their names so hopefully they will see this and know how grateful I am."
