County Galway girl Saoírse Ruane, one of the stars of last year's RTE’s Late Late Toy Show, has learned how to cycle her bike again. 

The 8 year old from Kiltullagh lost a leg as a result of a tumour. Her story, and her fundraising for charity, inspired the establishment of the Late Late Toy Show's own foundation.

Over €6m was raised during last November's TV extravaganza .

Saoírse’s mum Roseanna posted on Instagram yesterday how proud she is of her daughter, with a video of Saoirse cycling down a country road, head-to-toe in safety gear and soundtracked by Alicia Keys’ Girl On Fire.
