Air pollution: 'All children have the right to breathe clean air'

A coroner has called for a change in the law after air pollution led to the death of a nine-year-old girl.

Ella Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, who lived near the South Circular Road in Lewisham, south-east London, died in 2013.

Responding to the report, Ella's mother Rosamund Adoo- Kissi-Debrah told the BBC:

"All children have a right to breathe clean air, no matter where they live, or where they come from".
