Richard Hall also, as part of his research, attempted, unsuccessfully, to meet Lisa Bridgett at the marine business in NW Wales.

He was attempting see if she had a missing finger which she reported after the Manchester bang.
He writes about that visit in his book. Lisa also refers to it:

Lisa
lost a finger, broke her right ankle, had shrapnel wounds in her left leg, cheek and nose, and has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
See facial photo earlier in the thread. There is no imagery of the hand/finger anywhere.
She said she doesn't recall hearing any bang from the explosion, but remembers tensing after feeling a large gust of wind hitting her."I walked back into the foyer amongst all the people that were lying on the floor and obviously there was a number of casualties, people screaming."Ms Bridgett said she then realised she has lost her finger, and while looking for it on the floor she instead found her daughter's car keys."Then I was ushered into the inner concourse by a security guard - he told me not to look left. I did look, and it was the remains of Salman Abedi being covered up with a cardboard box."
ok...

[Lisa] hopes legal action against a conspiracy theorist will stop false stories spreading about the victims in future....
She was contacted by the BBC Panorama programme who alerted her to videos about her on Richard Hall's social media account.
Lisa was also appalled because
she was offered £550 for the loss of her middle finger.The 50-year-old's finger l lost the middle finger of her left hand when she was hit by a steel nut from the bomb detonated in the arena’s foyer
As well as the injury to her finger, Lisa was left with a steep nut embedded in her nose that has left her with scarring and lifelong breathing difficulties. She also suffered a broken right ankle and, like hundreds of others, Lisa was also left carrying mental scars, having been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Distress Order (PTSD).
. For her three injuries, Lisa was awarded a total of £17,350 by the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) scheme – but she rejected the offer as a “joke”.

Again, no picture of the finger, but the other two images of the bloodstained shoe and damaged phone were put up on her husband's facebook feed from the hospital..
The most recent fb image is ambiguous with respect of the finger: [March 2024]

2023 appears to show a full left hand. But I suspect this is a photo pre-2017 to tease Richard Hall, with the hand so prominently displayed for once.

Well here goes.....Lisa is in a positive mood and feels very lucky to be alive, witnessing first hand what could of been ! She has suffered multiple injuries including losing the middle finger from her left hand, which was caused by a steel nut that hit her finger then into her phone and eventually coming to rest in her nose.....she has a fractured ankle caused by shrapnel, and also a Large bullet hole wound to her thigh.....other cuts and bruises as you can well imagine.....the fact she was on her phone at the time as probably saved her life (thanks Vickie Lord).....as the nut has hit her phone which has more than likely not only diverted it, but also slowed it down considerably....her nose is fine as the nut entered through her cheek, so just a scar to deal with! She'll have a pot on for a few weeks and pins in her ankle so a bloody pain in the arse at airport security!! This may seem a bit graphic but at the end of the day it's a reality...she will make a full recovery although I don't think the finger will grow back! All of us want to thank the police for their incredible work after the incident and all the staff at both the MRI and Wythenshawe for all the work they have done and are doing.....and in particular, Peter (the steward) at the MEN for helping Lisa outside and getting her to safety, I have spoken to Peter since and we are going to meet up.....onwards and upwards.....she'll soon be propping the bar up again!
Thank you for everyone's wishes and offers of support....it means a lot xxx

Just to let everyone know Lisa was at the arena foyer when the mindless scumbag blew himself up....Ashleigh and her friend Chelsie were still in the arena so we're absolutely fine....Lisa is in Wythenshawe hospital via Manchester Royal and has suffered a few injuries that she will get over given time
