Diana Award

About the charity

The Diana Award recognizes young people who have made an outstanding and selfless contribution to their communities and demonstrated the qualities associated with the late Princess - compassion and a commitment to improving the lives of others. The Award identifies positive role models that challenge existing stereotypes of young people, and gives them recognition at a time when their life choices are still to be made. Receipt of the Award offers enormous prestige to recipients - as a formal, UK-wide lifelong recognition of achievement. We have seen first-hand the life-changing impact the award has on those that receive it. It instills confidence, encouraging its recipients to raise their sights and seize life's opportunities. It is open to young people of all abilities, circumstances and cultures throughout society. We also have a Diana Anti-Bullying Award for those aged who have tackled bullying in their schools and communities and a Diana Certificate of Excellence for groups of young people aged who have worked together to make their communities a better place to be.
