Whitby girl Evie Hodgson is doing well after receiving her bone marrow transplant on Friday.
The eight year old was diagnosed with a rare blood condition during the first lockdown last year.

Her mum, Tina, says Friday's transplant went well, but there is still a long way to go.

Evie has several more weeks of hospital treatment ahead of her, she is helping to pass the time by uploading a vlog of her time in hospital to her own YouTube channel. The videos offer insights into Evie's treatment including this verdict on the medicine.
