A "hero" 999 call handler has been introduced to the baby girl he helped deliver over the phone.
Dean, a London Ambulance Service emergency medical dispatcher, took a call last July when Chloe from Surbiton went into labour earlier than expected. He talked dad Dominic through the steps to deliver his daughter Jemima safely at home.
The couple, with now ten-month-old Jemima, met Dean at LAS's Waterloo headquarters. The family, who gave Jemima the middle name Edna - an anagram of Dean - also presented him with a stork pin badge, which is given to control room staff who help deliver babies over the phone before ambulance crews arrive.
