Rod Stewart has been praised by fans after paying for the autism diagnosis of a child who had spent three years on the NHS waiting list in Scotland.
The singer stepped in after reading about the case of four-year-old Iain Gregori, who is non-verbal and is due to start school this September. His father, Michael, had spoken to the Daily Record, which has been highlighting the lack of medical appointments for children with conditions such as autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, about how he feared his son was “lost in the system”.
