At only seven months old, Hannah Dreghorn is already a VIB (very important baby).

Despite the fact she needed help in reaching it, the tot helped unveil the opening plaque bearing her name at a new health clinic in Framwellgate Moor, County Durham.

Hannah was the first client to pass through the clinic's doors and to mark the event she has secured a place in the building's history.

The polished brass plaque on the wall tells how the clinic was opened by Lady Ann Calman, chairwoman of Durham and Chester-le-Street Primary Care Trust and Hannah, whose mother, Lois, was on hand to help her daughter carry out her civic duties.

Durham and Chester-le-Street Primary Care Trust funded the development of the Front Street clinic, which has replaced the Priory Road clinic built in the l960s.
