THERE are just three days left until the vote to find the winner of News Shopper's Local Hero campaign comes to an end.

A year ago we started in our quest to find youngsters who deserve praise for the good work they do in their communities.

We were inundated by entries, proving our theory most of our young people are decent members of society who are getting a poor reputation because of the actions of a few.

Twelve monthly winners were chosen and you can now vote for your favourite by visiting the Local Hero section of our website newsshopper .co.uk As of Monday, 10-year-old Zac Vincent was leading the race to win a state-of-the-art computer package.
