Zoe was born with athetoid cerebral palsy, which affects most of her key functions, including movement and speech.

She needs help with basic tasks like feeding, dressing and bathing - but follows the Spireites home and away and was named their supporter of the year in 2014.

Derby County fan Pav Samra and Doncaster Rovers supporter Paul Mayfield complete the shortlist for the EFL gong.
