A London black cab driver who returned approximately £10,000 in cash left in his taxi and regularly gives free rides to families with sick children has been named a local hero.
Michael O'Flynn, who has been praised for his honesty, generosity and long-standing support for families travelling to Great Ormond Street Hospital, has been named the London regional winner of the Acorn Taxi Hero Award.
The award, launched by taxi insurance specialist Acorn Insurance, honours drivers who demonstrate outstanding kindness, bravery and service to their passengers and communities.
