On her Twitter page, Carol posted: “Elizabeth sustained life-changing third-degree burns and after 70 operations she decided to run a mile a day for 26 days.
“[She] raised an AMAZING £202,000 for the people who helped her. You are so inspirational, beautiful girl.”
Many viewers were reduced to tears when Elizabeth’s inspiring story was revealed before she was presented with her award.

“How dare people make fun of her! She’s amazing, and she’ll do brilliantly.” (sic)
Elizabeth’s award was presented by the entire cast of this year’s Strictly Come Dancing, including judges Anton Du Beke and Shirley Ballas.
Carol went on to pay tribute to many more inspiring Brits, including Community Hero Michelle Donnelly and Young Fundraiser Tobias.
