Let $c$ be an edge colouring of a graph $G$ such that for every vertex $v$ there are at least $d$ different colours on edges incident to $v$. We prove that $G$ contains a properly coloured path of length 2d or a properly coloured cycle of length at least $d+1$. Moreover, if $G$ does not contain any properly coloured cycle, then there exists a properly coloured path of length $3 \times 2^{d-1}-2$.
