Elizabeth Soffe: Brave Schoolgirl Raises £202k After Horrific Fire | Pride of Britain 2022

Elizabeth was just six months old when she nearly died in a cot fire, suffering life-changing, third-degree burns over 60% of her body. Her family was in Qatar, where her dad Liam worked as an engineer, when a faulty air conditioner sparked a blaze in her room. Liam recalls: “Her mum went inside and the room was on fire. The cot was on fire. Elizabeth was on fire.” As baby Elizabeth fought for her life, Qatari doctors said they lacked the expertise to save her. In a frantic race against time, she was flown to Britain and admitted to the specialist burns unit at Birmingham Children’s Hospital. “That first day, they were very clear with us that she might not survive,” Liam says. Elizabeth spent weeks in a coma, followed by six months in intensive care, undergoing over 70 operations. Last year, wanting to thank the medics who saved her, Elizabeth ran a mile a day for 26 days, raising £202,000. Despite her challenges, she tells people: “It doesn’t matter what you look like, it just matters that you’re kind.” Mum Sinead adds that her daughter’s positivity is an inspiration.
