As part of this, we were involved in the selection panel and, amongst some other distinguished sponsors, had to make the extremely tough decision about who the winners were. And after much deliberation, Darren and Melissa Botterill, from Sileby in Leicestershire, walked away with the top award in our category, after creating an incredible 80,000 visors which were distributed to help protect the nation’s health workers.
