A West Cumbrian bus driver and his colleague have been praised for their actions after driving a passenger who was struggling with a mental health issue right to her door.
Steve Cannan was driving the number 29 Stagecoach service from Workington to Whitehaven on Thursday afternoon when one of his passengers seemed lost and confused.
He turned the full bus around so he could drive her home to Moorclose and, along with his mentor Phil Acton who was also onboard, walked her to her door.
