I just want to say I have tears in my eyes reading this post. I know the Princes Trust does great things, but I didn't realise how it personally affects so many people.
I was lucky enought to attend the event. Apart from almost falling apart with the stories I really saw the positivity running throughout their stories. They simply wanted an opportunity not a hand out.
I wasn't there this year but I was at the awards last year as a finalist, and wow, it was an experience I will never ever forget. some people say that the celebs who attend are there for their 'own good' but being there and seeing them, you can see how genuine they are and that they are there to celebrate each and every young person who has been helped by the trust. Thankyou for posting this and getting the word of what the trust does out there. glad you had an awesome day
