Pride of Scotland 2024: Meet the incredible heroes being honoured tonight

The countdown to the Daily Record Pride of Scotland Awards is over – and today we reveal the unsung heroes to be honoured at tonight’s red carpet spectacular.

Our glittering People’s Oscars will see awe-inspiring Scots recognised for their acts of courage and kindness. A dad who dragged a stranger from a burning car and police officers who tackled a machete-wielding attacker are among those being celebrated.





Also receiving a nod for their efforts are a teen who has been raising awareness of Type 1 diabetes and a couple whose tiny ponies are bringing joy to the vulnerable are among those being celebrated.

There will also be awards for schoolgirls Abbie Jarvis and Kaylynn Donald, who waved their anonymity to support a campaign against youth violence.

And firefighter John Aitchison, who set up a fire and rescue service on Mount Everest, is also receiving an award. The star-studded show, in partnership with TSB, is being hosted by actress Elaine C Smith and comedian Sanjeev Kohli.
