A DEVON team of Macmillan GPs have been recognised for their inspirational work supporting people affected by cancer in the county.

Former world champion swimmer and record holder Mark Foster presented the team with an award at the prestigious 2014 Macmillan Excellence Awards at The Hilton Metropole Hotel in Birmingham earlier this month.

The awards, now in their third year, celebrate the outstanding work of Macmillan health and social care professionals across the country.
