A MOTHER-of-three, seriously injured when she was hit by a car outside her home, is still 'poorly but stable' in the Royal Preston Hospital.

Elaine Haworth, 35, of Priory Grange, Darwen was injured on August 15.

Richard Bradley, 18, of Whitby Drive, Blackburn, has been charged with causing grievous bodily harm to Mrs Haworth, driving while disqualified, driving with excess alcohol and not having insurance or a licence.

He will next appear before Preston Crown Court on October 8.
