Arqam Al-Hadee hails from Azad Jammu Kashmir while Moiz Lakhani, Aiza Abid, and Sikander (Sonny) Khan are overseas Pakistanis.
What Is the Diana Award
Established in memory of Diana, Princess of Wales, The Diana Award is the most prestigious accolade a young person aged 9-25 years can receive for their social action or humanitarian work.
This is the longest running award for young people through a retrospective nomination process only. We believe this is special. Young people do not work towards the award, rather they demonstrate their suitability through their actions, without any expectation of reward.
