Pride of Britain East Midlands Nominees: Jess Simpkin

All this week we're announcing our nominees for the ITV Fundraiser of the Year in the East Midlands. We asked for your nominations for people in our region that go the extra mile to help others and raise money for charity. The winner will be heading to the glitzy Daily Mirror Pride of Britain awards later this month.

Our second nominee is Jess Simpkin from Rainworth in Nottinghamshire. Jess has been battling brain tumours since childhood, but that hasn't stopped her fight to raise money in the hope of finding a cure. Melissa Wright reports.
