SPIRIT OF LONDON AWARDS
The Spirit of London awards are an aspirational new awards scheme for young Londoners.
Launched in 2009 with a unique range of awards and a major awards show event the Spirit of London awards will illuminate good examples of the vibrant young people from an eclectic mix of multicultural backgrounds that help make London the greatest city in the world.
In its great history the metropolis has survived much conflict and trauma. Through every challenge faced the spirit of London has always prevailed.
It is the people of Britains capital city that provide its backbone and its young people that provide its future.

I, Richard Taylor, father of Damilola Taylor, on behalf of the Trustees of the Damilola Taylor Trust; would like to use this medium to express our profound gratitude to members of the public and most importantly, the bereaved members of the families that marched with us at the just concluded 'People's March against knife and gun crime' held on the 20th September 2008.
We thank the Police, Security Agencies for the successful management of the crowd without any casualties recorded.
