A couple from North Somerset are being given a bravery award later - after they risked their lives to help a victim of domestic abuse who'd just been attacked.

Cathryn Pugh has more:

Wendy and Stephen Chambers were at home back in April when they heard an argument in the street outside. They found a woman who'd been badly hurt and so took her inside while calling an ambulance.

Moments later the womans attacker - David Heron - came round and threatened to kill Wendy before throwing Stephen to the floor and jumping on his legs repeatedly. The police finally arrived and he and the woman were taken to hospital. Doctors say he nearly lost his right leg.

The couple are today being given the bravey award by the North Somerset Against Domestic Abuse charity at the Italian gardens.
