“Each year the most incredible stories are celebrated at the awards ceremony. Former nominees have risen to the top of the sporting, business, entertainment and the art worlds. Hundreds more are making a lasting difference all over the country.
“If you know of a young person who has made a real difference and deserves recognition I’d encourage you to nominate them before the deadline at the end of next month.”
