This Brighton teenager deserves a big bear hug for her selfless work.
Izzi Hickmott, 16, was selected by the Build-A-Bear Workshop in the shop’s annual search for Huggable Heroes.
The award is handed to someone who gives up their time to work in the community for others.
Miss Hickmott was one of 48 global finalists selected for the award and is now one of two youngsters from Britain shortlisted.
As a result she has picked up a £3,000 educational scholarship and a £1,500 donation for a registered charity of her choosing.
Diagnosed with Type one diabetes aged 10, Miss Hickmott became eager to share her experiences to help others.
