Young boy uses 'all his strength' to hug Prince Harry
A young boy with a debilitating medical condition has hugged Prince Harry at a ceremony to recognise inspirational children.
Five-year-old Ollie Carroll suffers from the rare Batten disease and cannot stand by himself but managed to get to his feet to fling his arms around the prince.
Ollie's Mother, Lucy, told 5 live Daily's Adrian Chiles that her son "used all of his strength to stand up and throw his arms around Prince Harry".
Ollie was among the children recognised at the WellChild Awards, which honour young children and their carers.
