He said: “I was extremely touched to be recognised as a Super Hero by my colleagues in this way.
“Being single, it was easier for me to volunteer than most other members of the team and being the night porter, I’m quite used to working by myself anyway.”
Mark, who has worked at The White Hart for seven years, received a record eight nominations from fellow team members who praised his selfless support and dedication to his job.
