The Diana Awards was created back in 1999, two years after Princess Di's death to tackle bullying and social exclusion.
As
her sons celebrate the award's 15 year anniversary, both spoke out
about Diana's charitable legacy and praised its energy and passion.
"We
believe, when encouraged and supported, that young people have the
ability to change society for the better. We know that our mother - in
whose memory this award was established - felt the same and would be
proud of its achievements to date,” both wrote in a joint foreword for a book celebrating the organisation's birthday
The
Diana Awards are presented to young people, including volunteers,
carers and fund-raisers, who have a monumental impact on the lives of
others. It also runs training, mentoring and anti-bullying ambassador
programmes.
