A school girl in Leicester has been honoured by supermarket giant Morrisons for her selfless work for the community throughout the pandemic.
Submitting.
Their Little Sunshine Award in Peterborough went to Ravensthorpe Primary School pupil Megan, 11, who has been trying to make her community tidier by litter picking.
During the first lockdown she also donated a length of her hair to the Little Princess Trust, which makes wigs for children undergoing cancer treatment, and has been looking after her sick Mum throughout.
Ellie said: “Megan has done an amazing job at trying to keep her family and friend’s spirits high throughout this challenging year.”
As well as the award, Megan was given some seeds, a garden hamper, some water pistols, balloons, sweets and an afternoon tea for two.
