WE were inundated with nominations in our charity champion category.

So the judges faces a tough job in selection Hope Burton-Baddeley and Liz Jones as the two finalists.

Hope, aged eight, has been raising money for the past six months for the Rainbow Child Foundation.

She has raised almost £3,000 by runing events such as a fun day, talent show, car washes, cake sales raffles, gog walks and online contests.

She has even sold her own clothers and toys to raise money for the charity.

Liz Jones works at a medical practice in Penketh.

She raised more than £4,000 on a charity walk up Snowden to give to Tom Coleridge, injured while serving in Afghanistan.

Later in 2012, she rode from Manchester to Blackpool and raise more than £1,000 for Alder Hey Hospital.

Both events were supported by colleagues and patients.
