Angela Lloyd was presented the award at a special ceremony at the Primary Care offices by company owners Michelle Duggan and Natalie Emmerson, as well as Clacton MP Douglas Carswell.
A BIG-HEARTED volunteer has been given an award for helping her neighbours.
Angela Lloyd, a mum-of-two from Highwoods, Colchester, won Primary Care UK’s Big Heart competition.
The Clacton-based care company launched an appeal last Christmas for people to help their elderly and infirm neighbours in a bid to help those left alone during the festive season and after an overwhelming response decided to create the Big Heart award.
Judges said Angela’s nomination stood out over a series of strong entries.
Angela, 42, said she was delighted but shocked to win.
