When 16-year-old Jacob Miles noticed smoke billowing from his elderly neighbour’s house on his walk to school, he didn’t hesitate. He ran to the door, found 82-year-old Gladys inside disoriented by smoke, and guided her to safety just before flames reached the living room. After calling emergency services and checking she was OK, Jacob grabbed his bag and headed off to class — arriving just in time for his maths test. “He didn’t even tell anyone at school until later,” said his headteacher. “Jacob is a quiet hero, and our entire town is incredibly proud of him.”
