In a remarkable display of courage and selflessness, 18-year-old Tony Mepham from Ogmore-by-Sea, South Wales has been awarded one of the most prestigious bravery awards in the world. This extraordinary achievement makes him only the second British person ever to receive this esteemed recognition. Tony's heroic act took place last November when he fearlessly leapt into the stormy sea to rescue 20-year-old Rachelle Symonds from Cowbridge. Rachelle had been swept into treacherous waters while out for a walk near The Deeps. Without hesitation, Tony risked his own life to save hers. The significance of Tony's brave actions was acknowledged not only by his local community but also by international organizations.
