A five-year-old boy is being praised after he helped save his mum's life - having cleverly called the emergency services using a phone number written on the side of his toy ambulance.

Little Josh was at home when he found his mum lying on the floor, having slipped into a diabetic coma.

Rather than panicking, Josh spotted a phone number on the side of his toy ambulance, and dialled 112 - the single European emergency number, which functions in the same way as 999.

Josh, from Telford, Shropshire, was then connected to a police communications operator, who was able to help him and his mum.
