BIG-HEARTED animal-lover Shaun French has won the PDSA Young Fundraiser of the Year Award - for the second year.

The 11-year-old Isle of Wight schoolboy was crowned with the title four years ago at the tender age of seven.

Now his efforts as a member of the charity's young persons' club, PDSA Pet Protectors, have seen him come out on top again after a sponsored wordsearch.

Shaun, of East Cowes, managed to stump up a whopping £150, which will go towards treating sick and injured pets.

He will be presented with a plaque at a special presentation at Portsmouth PDSA PetAid hospital.
