Like many charities during the coronavirus pandemic, Somerset's five Citizens Advice services have had to change the way that they help local people.
More and more individuals and families are seeking advice over the telephone and email, on issues related to their finances or employment, through to consumer, relationship or housing problems.
The Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Partnership have announced their Volunteer of the Year for 2020, choosing not just one volunteer but all 34 Volunteer Rangers collectively.
The award has always been given to an individual that has gone above and beyond the call of duty, but due to the extraordinary circumstances of 2020 it felt unfair to celebrate just one volunteer.

Thanks to more than 450 generous supporters across Somerset, the annual Surviving Winter appeal - which provides funding and support to our older neighbours in Wells who are struggling to heat their homes - is getting close to reaching its target of £120,000 this winter.
Surviving Winter, which is run by Somerset Community Foundation (SCF), encourages people who can afford to, to make a donation from their Winter Fuel Payment.
New year always brings hopes and resolutions, both more important than ever this year.
Like people of goodwill everywhere, members of Mendip Ramblers hope for a better year in 2021 for the whole world.
