Student's joy after CPR device wins national award

A student who designed a potentially lifesaving device to help a person perform CPR correctly has won a national award.

Harry Wragg created a prototype at Leicester's De Montfort University (DMU), which clicks when the person carrying out compressions on the chest uses the correct amount of force.

The 21-year-old said he wanted to design a product to give people confidence to help save a life, adding he was 'overwhelmed' to have won this year's Design Innovation in Plastics Awards (DIP).

Harry spoke to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Leicester's Letitia George.
