  • 20 hours ago
This is the adorable moment a disabled girl who was born without an arm giggles with delight as she test-drives a new £20,000 bionic limb.

Eight-year-old Zoey Hampton-Pidgeon hopes to be fitted with a prosthetic limb so she can fulfil her dream of learning how to skip.

Heartwarming footage shows her trying out a prototype of the arm, made by US-firm the Open Bionics Foundation, for the first time.
