We asked The Gazette readers to tell this newspaper who their lockdown legends have been so we could help to share their good work.
Those who have touched the most lives in this area, include remarkable human beings that have been the back bone behind food banks, a charity providing a free breakfast and lunch club, and individuals who have been giving a helping hand, wherever they are needed.
