Radio 1 Teen Awards 2014: Teen Hero - Shannon's Story
Greg James surprises Shannon, a 16-year-old from South London, with a personal invitation to Radio 1's Teen Awards at Wembley Arena. After overcoming family hardship, homelessness, and isolation, Shannon has transformed her life through volunteering at a youth centre, where she now mentors vulnerable young people. Greg arrives unannounced at the Salvation Army to deliver the news in front of her colleagues, who describe her as an inspiring force of genuine compassion.
