A 13-year-old carer, a skateboard-loving sport star and an awe-inspiring conservationist are among the winners at Isle of Wight Radio's 2020 Child Of Wight Awards.
The annual celebration is usually held at a glamorous awards ceremony but, in light of the coronavirus pandemic, it was forced to adapt this year.
With help from headline sponsors WightFibre, Isle of Wight Radio ensured the show would still go on for a fifth year running.
Host Paul Topping announced the winners on Isle of Wight Radio's Breakfast Show on Monday morning (2), accompanied by Hayley Woodward and Oliver Dyer.
