The mother of Archie Battersbee has warned parents to make sure their children do not take part in dangerous viral challenges on social media.
12-year-old Archie was rushed into hospital in April after being found unconscious by his mum at his Southend home after suffering a catastrophic brain injury. He has not regained consciousness and has remained in a coma since.
Doctors treating Archie declared him as being brain-stem dead. Since the accident, Archie's separated parents Hollie Dance and Paul Battersbee have launched several appeals to continue his treatment.
