A teenage speedway starlet who suffered a life-threatening brain injury nearly two years ago is set to speak at a neurological conference next month.
Sam Norris, from Linton, near Haverhill, was riding for Mildenhall Fen Tigers when he crashed his 250cc bike while racing at the British Youth Championships in Glasgow in June 2019.
The then-15-year-old was on life support for two days and doctors feared he may not survive.
