Children can now drive themselves to theatre for surgery in a mini electric Porsche.
Youngsters have been arriving for operations at the Princess Elizabeth Hospital with smiles on their faces now that they can get there in style.
The car has been donated to Frossard Ward by Stan Brouard.
"Any operation carried out in theatre can be daunting, especially for children. The car arrived last week, and Theatre and Frossard Ward staff have really enjoyed seeing the children arrive with a big smile on their face having driven here. We can’t thank Stan Brouard enough for their generous donation" - Hannah Clark, Deputy Theatre Manager.
The first child to use the car to drive to theatre was Briony-Rae Domaille. Her mum, Lucy Prevel said:
"The smile on Briony-Rae’s face when she drove herself to her operation was great to see. We were all a bit nervous and this calmed us all down before her procedure."
