Danielle, a clinical support worker at Weston Park Hospital, said: "Lucas is so small his one-year-old sister Isla towers over him. They've performed every test the NHS can offer and they still haven't been able to diagnose his condition.

"They are also huge football fans, which helps, and with Lucas's smile how could you not want to help?"
