David Johnston, MP for Wantage and Didcot, presented four pupils from Hendreds Church of England School with Local Hero Awards after they secured help for an unconscious woman in East Hendred.
The four Year 6 pupils were playing in a nearby park after school where they found an unconscious woman and acted quickly to find help for her.
Toby Cockett, George McDermaid, Alfie Necchi-Ghiri and Evalyn Atkins were all awarded Local Hero Awards by their MP for going out of their way to assist a person in need.
Lisa Rees, Headteacher at Hendreds Church of England School, said:
“Thank you to David Johnston MP for recognising the bravery of Toby, George, Alfie, and Evalyn. They went out of their way to assist a person in need of help and are a great example to other pupils.”
