Quotes:
Harry Jones, of Leyland, Lancashire, who was born missing his right
arm below his elbow, had always dreamed of having a robot arm so he
could enjoy two-handed activities with his friends such as riding a
bike and karting.

This week his ambition was realised after he was fitted with his Iron
Man-themed “Hero Arm” which was created by Open Bionics and can mimic
real hand movements.

Harry is one of the first non-military veterans in the UK to be fitted
with a life-changing bionic arm through the NHS. The health service
made them available to civilians last year.
