A Banff shopkeeper has revealed he was forced to drive as far south as Manchester to stock up on essential supplies for vulnerable people in the early months of the pandemic.
Des Cheyne, who owns the Spotty Bag Shop, said he and his family were “gobsmacked” to find he would be awarded the British Empire Medal (BEM) for his role in the north-east town’s Covid response.
