E-cigarette poisoning and button battery burns are a growing problem in the North East

Radio Newcastle @bbcnewcastle on the increasing problems of children being treated for e-cigarette re-fill poisoning and serious button battery burns.

Katrina Phillips (CAPT) meets two-year-old Amari Leonard from South Tyneside who was in hospital for almost a week earlier this year after swallowing a lithium (button) battery. She visits her and her mum Fhiza to see how they're getting on and to hear first hand about some of the real dangers in the home for babies and young children.
