A husband-and-wife team from south Norfolk have been crowned best independent home news delivery retailer in the country.

Nick and Vicky Anderson, from Suton, near Wymondham, beat competition from around the United Kingdom to triumph in the National Federation of Retail Newsagents Awards.

The couple have owned Norfolk News Deliveries for seven years.

Mrs Anderson, 32, nominated the business after seeing the application in the NFRN magazine.

They were crowned at a ceremony at the Park Plaza Riverbank Hotel in London on Tuesday, October 14.

They deliver around 5,000 EDPs a week.

She said: 'We didn't expect to win at all, we're completely surprised. It is hard work, we have to learn how to switch off otherwise we never stop.'
