Award for boy, 4, who called 999 for his mother
EMASA mother whose four-year-old son called an ambulance when she had a seizure has said she "couldn't be prouder".
After Bonnie collapsed at home in Carlton, Nottinghamshire, in January, Richard called 999 and directed crews to the house, giving information like the road name and colour of the front door.
He was given a certificate by his school and has now also received an East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS) Children's Bravery Award in recognition of his calmness and bravery.
Bonnie said: "It's reassuring to know that if something ever happened again, he would know what to do."
EMASBonnie said she remembered very little from the incident, which happened as Richard was getting ready for school.
She said: "I'd had a migraine for a couple of days and I remember feeling dizzy.
"The next thing I knew, the ambulance crew were crouched over me.
"I didn't know if I'd managed to call 999 or not. Hearing about what [Richard] did is amazing.
"We've always taught him his address and bits of important information, never imagining he'd need it - but it absolutely paid off."
Emergency medical advisor Alicia Key, who had qualified only weeks earlier, answered the call.
She said: "At first it was difficult to tell how old he was, but as soon as he started speaking it was clear how calm and observant he is.
"He gave me his full name, his mum's name, their road, the colour of their front door, even the colour of his mum's car.
"He listened carefully and answered every question he could."
Richard received his EMAS Children's Bravery Award during a special reunion event with the call handler and ambulance crew involved in his mum's emergency.
