THE COURAGE AWARDS

Winner: Luke Bettelley

Winner: Taylor Fowler

The tales of both children touched the judges’ hearts, so they decided to make two awards in this category. Six-year-old Taylor saved his older brother Mason when he got into difficulty with a garden climbing frame. His prompt action, initiative and bravery in crisis meant that Mason survived what could have been a tragic accident.

And 12-year-old Luke Bettelley has shown extreme courage through a seriously debilitating liver condition, resulting in a transplant last year. While in hospital, Luke had a surprise visit from X Factor finalists JLS – who were highly impressed by his courage and determination to recover.
