What you mean

[Ms Macbeth 73]

An ordinary man, who gives up so much of his time and puts in so much effort to raise money (and awareness) for a really good cause has been rewarded. Like so many Sheffield people I've put my change into his bucket when I've seen him out and about, and he is always so pleasant.

 

Many congratulations to him.

Congratulations to John Burkhill the man with the pram,

 

He's been awarded the British Empire Medal !

 

Lovely recognition for a lovely, dedicated chap!

 

The man is a true inspiration. Maybe if these youngsters who say there is no work would get off their butts and follow his example they may get noticed by a worthy employer?

[levisage 10]

Absolutely legend. Well done John!
