A kindhearted dad creates imitation medical devices for teddy bears to give to disabled and ill children - so they can have a toy that looks just like them.

Nick Hardman, 40, uses a 3D printer to create tracheostomies, dialysis machines and hearing aids, which he then stitches to cuddly toys to give to poorly youngsters.

He started making the teddies almost three years ago after being asked to make a toy shunt battle for a child who had a brain tumour.
