Young Aussie inventor builds a better Band-Aid dispenser

After being diagnosed with leukaemia 18 months ago, a 10-year-old girl from Australia was inspired to invent a new device for dispensing Band-Aids. Dubbed the Faster-Aid, Bridgette Veneris' design works like a roll of sticky tape that's resealable to keep the bandages sterile, and the idea was selected as a winner in Origin Energy's littleBIGidea, an Australia-wide competition for young inventors.
