“I was given the award by the ‘League of Extraordinary Cachers’ at their end of year event in Merstham, Surrey, on Sunday, December 11.
“I had enjoyed showing the geocachers my trail when they visited Hastings in October - they’d come from all over southern England.
“I was very pleased to win the award.
“I really enjoy geocaching, and have my own geocaching channel on YouTube which gets hundreds of hits, and has more than 70 subscribers.”
