For her birthday, Scout decided she had got enough toys and wanted instead to buy some for other children staying in hospital.

She said: “I have lots of toys already so I would like to make sure the children at the hospital have new toys to play with too. They need them more than I do.”

Scout raised £130 to buy the toys.
