ELEISHA Thompson received the most precious Mother's Day gift of all when she gave birth to a baby son at Fairfield Hospital in Bury.

But there was an unexpected present in the shape of a special baby box, courtesy of the Asda store in Pilsworth.The company decided to make the donation to the mum who gave birth to the first baby on Mothering Sunday.

Tiny Marcus Thompson was born two minutes after midnight at Fairfield.

The baby box contains a range of accessories for Marcus to help him through his first few weeks and will be of special benefit to proud mum Eleisha who lives in Bury.

She was presented with the gift by Annette Jones, events co-ordinator for the store.
