Available for over a year

A young football fan who received a telephone call from one of his heroes while in hospital said at first he thought it was an April Fool's prank. Eleven-year-old George, who is being treated for a kidney disorder, was stunned to have received the call from AFC Bournemouth goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale. The 21-year-old stopper phoned George after the boy's dad, Chris, requested a signed photo to cheer him up. George who is currently in hospital received a heartwarming call organised by dad Chris. We spoke to George and his Chris about this magical moment that has warmed the cockles of people across the country.
