Hari gets guard of honour as he leaves Alder Hey

After 14 months in hospital, 4 year old Hari was met with a guard of honour today by hospitcal staff and Merseyside Police. Hari, from Caegwyn in Wales, was in hospital due to respiratory failure and a condition called X-linked myotubular myopathy that primarily affects the muscles used for movement.

Hari absolutely loves the emergency services, especially the police force, and was met by police cars, vans, bikes, officers and police dogs to give him the send-off he deserves and escort him home as he is a VIC after all…very important child! Merseyside Police also arranged for his local police force in Wales to meet him on his return.

Hair’s Mum Ellen said:

“We can’t thank the staff at Alder Hey enough and Merseyside Police, they have been amazing, and we want to say a big thank you for everything they’ve done and for getting us where we are today. We’re very excited to get home but we’ll miss everyone here.”

Good luck Hari from everyone at Explore. ????
