Alexandra's nomination story

My mum is a wonderful candidate. Recently she without hesitation ran into a Burning building, pulled an 80year old, bed ridden lady out of the top window and down some ladders to safety before the building burnt down. The fire crews said that the lady would have died if it wasn't for my mums selfless and brave actions. She's as figure head of the community and an asset which cannot be measured, who is loved by the village and especially her family. I think she is a model candidate for her lifesaving actions and deserves to be recognised as a leading light in our community and be displayed as the brilliant, loving caring and fearless mother she is. I do not believe there is a more eloquent candidate than her, as in her life she does nothing but lead a light which all should hope to follow. Please see below web link to Northampton Chronicle for pictures, news story for further details of her actions. http://www.northamptonchron.co.uk/news/local/heroic_rescue_of_disabled_pensioner_from_blaze_at_16th_century_northamptonshire_home_1_2460345 Thank you Ben
