Yahoo Sports What a sweetheart! Schoolgirl, 9, leaves 'awesome' police letters and chocolates
Generous schoolgirl Eva Davies left emergency service workers “humbled” – by sending them chocolates when she saw their hard work on YouTube.
Eva, nine, from Chorley, Lancashire, delivered handwritten letters and sweets to NHS workers and police officers near her home on Saturday because she wanted to tell them they were “awesome”.
With the help of dad Gary, she wrote a dozen letters and put them in envelopes along with chocolate bars, which they handed out together on a “daddy-daughter day” in their local town.
Gary, 40, said: “My daughter was watching a YouTube clip and it was showing the ambulance service and police generally having… the general public misbehaving towards them.”

All I can say is thank you!”
