TOWIE star praised as he becomes a volunteer coronavirus vaccinator

A star of The Only Way is Essex has been praised as he becomes a volunteer coronavirus vaccinator.

Bobby Norris, who has stared in the reality series since 2012, revealed the news on Instagram.

Sharing the update with his followers, Bobby posted a photo of him holding up a certificate and wrote: "Today I completed my training as a Covid-19 Volunteer Vaccinator.

"This pandemic has affected us all in one way or another and after contracting the virus myself over Christmas and finding out first hand just how awful it really is, I decided that once I was better I wanted to do whatever I could to help others."

The 34-year-old added as he shared another photo of him administering a vaccine to a patient: "I'm really looking forward to getting out there and doing my part in supporting the NHS in the rollout of the vaccine.."

And Bobby has been flooded with praise following his decision.

"Yes Bobby! This is amazing," co-star Georgia Kousoulou wrote.

A fan added: "Better than the ones swanning off to different countries amid such a terrible and difficult time for everyone. Brilliant."

"The type of social media influencer I love... Great work Bobby," third added.

A fourth said: "Amazing Well done Bobby! Put the Dubai lot to shame."

"Omg I loooove you. Best type of influencer! Always such an angel," another added.
