Three remarkable individuals were honored at the 2024 Pride of Britain Awards for their extraordinary acts of courage and kindness. These winners, chosen from a vast pool of nominations, were celebrated at a prestigious event in London co-hosted by Ashley Banjo and Carol Vorderman.
In a heartwarming gesture, P&O Cruises, the new headline sponsor of the Pride of Britain Awards, surprised each of the 12 winners with a cruise holiday to create lasting memories with their loved ones.
Among the recipients were Aiyla Mota, recognized for her exceptional bravery and resilience at just five years old. After a severe illness led to the amputation of both her legs, Aiyla’s unwavering spirit and positivity earned her the Child of Courage award.
Manny Singh Kang, acknowledged as the ITV Fundraiser of the Year, raised over £260,000 for Dementia UK through his unique initiative of selling homemade samosas. His philanthropic efforts were rewarded with a well-deserved Caribbean cruise experience with his family.
Emily Greenwood, honored for her outstanding bravery, saved two individuals caught in a dangerous riptide off the Cornish coast. Her heroic actions granted her a Pride of Britain Award and a memorable Caribbean cruise alongside her family.
