Olivia Thompson created the Cloud Walker alongside three classmates at St Bride's Primary School in Glasgow with her three-year-old sibling Gabriella in mind
A Scots schoolgirl who designed a walking aid for her disabled sister has won a national award alongside her classmates.
The device is still at a design stage – but a prototype could yet be built by engineering students. Olivia said she and her classmates hadn't expected to pick up the gong. "For diet we researched different things that people should eat, the exercise app had things they should and shouldn't do, there were wee pictures on another app to help with memory. They said that students might be able to make it but it could take a long time."
Aileen said: "It was very much a group effort, they worked really hard on it. They had to send a video presentation to the competition, so they took their turns talking.
