SPECIAL youngsters from around the county gathered
for the first Pride of Somerset Youth Awards on Friday.
And four young people from the Yeovil area were
judged winners in the new award scheme run by Rotary
International, your Express and Orchard FM.
Included among the winners was 11-year-old George
Brown, who has shown courage in the face of adversity.
Keen footballer George, from Yeovil, has kept a smile
on his face while undergoing major operations on his
heart because part of his aorta was too big.
His award nomination reads: He is still helping others
by coaching and running the line for his old team and
refereeing to assist younger ones at school - and he is
still smiling!
