An 86-year-old has been telling Premier how delighted she was to receive her Pride of Britain Award.
Anne Scarfe was given the Local Hero accolade for her volunteer work with Plymouth Street Pastors, which sees her spending most her evenings out in her local town until 4am offering help and support to those who are on a night out.
She also volunteers at two different soup kitchens and a lunch club for homeless people.
She told Victoria Laurence on the News Hour why she does it:
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
