Meet the carers, volunteers and key workers you asked us to say a Big Thank You to

SO MANY brilliant people are to thank for keeping Portsmouth ticking during the coronavirus crisis.

And to show the city’s gratitude, we asked you to nominate the unsung heroes in your lives for recognition in our Big Thank You supplement.

Here’s the first of two online photo galleries we’re running to celebrate those inspirational people.

You’ll also find their names and faces in the Big Thank You pull-out free in this weekend's edition of The News, Portsmouth.
