Two people in Bristol have been named as finalists in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2022 Unsung Hero awards. Mike Alden and Becca Todd are two of just eight volunteers to make the list of final nominees.
The Unsung Hero award celebrates volunteers who make a positive impact in their community by enabling participation in grassroots sports. The winner will be revealed live on air on BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2022 on Wednesday 21 December from 6.45pm on BBC One.
Mike Alden, from south Bristol, was diagnosed with brittle bone disease at the age of four, and has broken nearly every bone in his body. This didn’t stop him playing football in his childhood and he has since encouraged others to play the beautiful game by setting up Park Knowle FC.
