A volunteer engineer helped modify a walker for a Woodford Green boy with cerebral palsy after he had outgrown it and was struggling to get around.
Julie Irvine approached the charity Remap Essex West to see if it could help improve the stability of the walker for her son Miles.
The charity helps people with disabilities to improve their quality of life by making things that cannot be bought commercially.
