Community-spirited Nicole and Ryan have been heavily involved in volunteering and are building on that after recently becoming first aiders with the St Andrew’s Ambulance Brigade.

Some readers will also recognise Nicole as a Brownie leader for 1st Cumbernauld.

Mum Diane said: “I am very proud of them both. The way they have progressed up from the Bronze award to the Gold award has been just great.’’
