The Duchess of Cambridge has met first responders

The Duchess of Cambridge has met first responders and some of the survivors of the London Bridge terror attack who are still being treated for their injuries.

A total of 14 people suffering predominantly with stab wounds were admitted to King's College Hospital shortly after the attack.

Terrorists Khuram Butt, Rachid Redouane and Youssef Zaghbaleft killed eight people and left dozens wounded after their van and knife attack on 3 June.

Many of the staff at King's College who tended to the trio's victims had also been on duty on 22 March when Khalid Masood killed five people in an attack on Westminster Bridge.

Kate said: "To go through this sort of event twice, it is quite unprecedented."

Talking to the Duchess about the "trauma" of the incident, the hospital's head of nursing Lynne Watkins-Hulme explained: "We are used to seeing people who are stabbed.

"But to have six women who were stabbed, multiple times - it was just the amount of people - that was upsetting."
