National recognition for Tiverton teenager.

A government Minister is paying tribute to a teenager from Tiverton, who's just won a top national volunteering award.

Sixteen year old Molly Pattison saved her local BMX team after hearing the existing one was going to fold. She started another one, called Revolution Racing, so her friends could continue cycling.

She's now been given a national Point of Light award, and Nick Hurd, the Minister for Civil Society, says Molly is an excellent role model.
