A boy recognised as a Child of Courage under the Pride of Birmingham awards has died following his battle with an incurable illness.
Ten-year-old Oscar Jealous from Kingstanding, Birmingham, had Batten Disease, a condition affecting his nervous system.
March's award was in recognition of Oscar raising awareness of the illness.
His family said their "superhero" passed away peacefully at home on Thursday.
In a social media post, Oscar's family said he was surrounded by relatives in a house full of love and hope for what should have been.
