The robot was created by a Norweigan company called No Isolation, who worked with UK children's charity WellChild to help make the event happen.。
“Having the support from the amazing team at WellChild, from Esther our dedicated WellChild Nurse... means we’re never alone, isolated or without support," Jack's mother Michell Wignall, who also works as a WellChild ambassador, said in a statement.
"We are thrilled that, through No Isolation and Everton Football Club, Jack was able to enjoy this once in a lifetime experience." 。
