A couple from North Somerset have been recognised for their services to social care during the pandemic in the Queen s birthday honours.
Colin and Jacqui Payne, from Weston, have been awarded the British Empire Medal for their work during Covid-19.
For the past 10 years, Colin and Jacqui have shared their home with people with learning disabilities - supporting them and welcoming them to become part of their household.
On the cusp of the lockdown last year, the couple prepared their home so they could dedicate their lives to becoming full-time carers.
