Hide AdAn Express Store manager’s son had spent a lot of time when he was younger at the Amazon ward so the impact that this would have was known to the stores staff.
The Xbox One and television will be put on a portable trolley so children in isolation can relieve the boredom and hopefully take their minds off their illness for just a few hours .
