Harry Miller took photos of various objects including trees, doors, sticks and play equipment to represent letters in the message while on a walk with mum Kirsty Miller.

Kirsty is using the adorable image in a fundraising drive - with all donations going to the Association of NHS Charities.

The proud mum-of-two told how she came up with the idea after plucky tot Harry developed a new obsession with photography.

She said: “He’s always taking surprise pictures of me and his sister and everyone’s trying to find something to stay occupied - then he suddenly committed to taking photos.

“We saw what Captain Tom Moore was doing in appreciation of all the amazing work our doctors and nurses are doing at the moment.

“So we decided to take some photos - looking for the letters while out walking the dog.

“We even made an ‘N’ by photographing our shadows together - he was so excited.”

Kirsty, 28, told how Harry was ‘very aware’ of the fact that his movements outside the house were now restricted.

She said: “His grandparents are self-isolating and he’s aware we can’t see them - I’ve explained there are germs around at the moment and we can’t go and see people.

“He gets upset because he’s missing people but he understands why we can’t see them.”
