A grandfather who thought he was the victim of a scam after being told he was receiving a British Empire Medal (BEM) has said he feels "privileged" after being invited to King Charles's coronation.
John Anderson, 72, from Fraserburgh in Aberdeenshire, received the award in 2020 in recognition for his community work throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.
Mr Anderson will be attending the King's coronation on May 6 and said he felt "privileged" to have the invitation extended to him.
