A couple are desperately trying to raise funds to purchase a powerchair for their 10-year-old son who is no longer able to walk.
Louis Jackson has muscular dystrophy and struggles to leave the house without the use of a wheelchair. The genetic condition causes the muscles to weaken, leading to an increasing level of disability.
His family, from Spennymoor, County Durham, are unable to go out together as Louis does not like being pushed in a wheelchair. His parents Sarah and Sam Jackson, both 44, are hoping to purchase a powerchair which he can operate himself.
