LAST year's winner of the Trowbridge Employee of the Year competition was Clinton Perry, who beat 40 entrants to the grand prize.

Husband and father Mr Perry even shed a few tears on the night he won.

As one of the six finalists, BBC Points West presenter Sally Challoner interviewed him live on stage on finals night.

Last year's turnout at the event was good, and Mr Perry had a lot of supporters in the crowd and was a popular choice to scoop the prize.

Mr Perry, who is confined to a wheelchair, is a nightshift worker at Tesco in Trowbridge.
