Louise Baines from Annfield Plain in County Durham tried to sell her £10,000 static caravan back to the park she bought it from a year after purchasing it.

She said she had no choice but to sell the caravan after she was diagnosed with cancer and was told she would not be able to visit the park for the next year while she received treatment.

The park offered her £500, and blamed the recession for the drop in value, until the BBC got involved.
