Well done Emma Cooper!
Little Emma Cooper played a major role in a kind-hearted team of Trojans who took key sanitisers to medical teams at the hospital where she was born.
The eight-year-old helped unpack, assemble, label and repack 400 units with Saddleworth Round Table, whose mission is to provide support for the heroes on the front line at the Royal Oldham Hospital.
And as a bonus, Emma decorated each package with a message and rainbow.
Round Table’s Michael Procter said: “We have been delivering 400 individual sanitiser bottles to ICU and A&E at Oldham Hospital.
“They have been specifically requested so each nurse, doctor or carer can carry their own individual bottle.
"Emma very kindly helped us.
“They have been bought with the funds very kindly donated by the people of Oldham to our JustGiving site."
