A bus driver who ran in to warn residents at a block of flats that the building had gone up in flames has received a national award for her bravery.
Pamela McCluskey was named Frontline Employee of the Year at the 2020 Scottish Transport Awards in recognition of her heroic actions on Bonfire Night last year.
The First Bus driver brought her vehicle to a halt after noticing flames coming from a flat in Kingseat Avenue in Grangemouth and quickly alerted the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.
