AN EAST Morton woman has won a coveted accolade.
Human resources consultant Emma Scott was chosen from 1,400 staff at the Skipton Building Society to receive the Trusted Colleague award.
She was nominated in the society's annual Star Awards for the help and support she has shown in various aspects of life at the organisation.
Paul Haines, who made the nomination, said: "Emma has been there for many people over the past year, helping out and supporting in a variety of ways. She really deserves this award and is genuinely a real star in the society."
Emma, who has worked for the organisation for four years, said: "I feel overwhelmed, privileged and honoured to receive the Trusted Colleague award.
"I always strive to be supportive and sociable towards my colleagues but I never thought I would win an award for this.
"I just love being part of a team that is supporting the society in striving to become a high performing organisation."
