Commenting on the award-winners, David Cameron said:
“The people and organisations recognised today have all made extremely valuable contributions to their communities. What they've done is inspiring. They've made projects happen, bringing about genuine and positive change, and they are building the bigger, stronger society that I want us all to be a part of. I hope their example will motivate others to take action and get involved.
”
Ed Miliband, the Labour leader, said:
“This is a fantastic initiative that will highlight the work that goes on right across the UK to make Britain a better place. It has unearthed some great examples of people taking the initiative to create positive social change.
