Who would you give an award to and why?

Here's what people in London said:

I think this would be my parents. Firstly,for them being always an inspiration to myself, for motivating me to work hard to achieve my goals and for always supporting me in good and bad times and being there for me whenever I need them. So definitely my parents, my Mum and Dad.

What kind of award would you give them,like an Oscar or something?

There are so many ways you can award your parents, but probably I would award them by just making them proud for who I became at the moment and for really aiming to achieve all my goals and I think that would be the best reward for them. For them to be proud of myself and be proud of my sisters.

I would like to give one to Nelson Mandela.His capacity to forgive - I think wecan all bring that into our own lives as well. That's just a personal attribute out of his other excellent leadership qualities.

I would give it posthumously to Gutenberg,for the invention of the printing press, obviously. I think we can't even,begin to imagine a world without books and the transfer of knowledge in the fashion that the printing press and the spread of books, that that has basically allowed.

People in London like to award their parents as well.What kind of award would they wish to give to their parents? It is by making them proud of themselves. I guess that is what every parent wish for. Parents just hope that their children will grow up well, be healthy and do something good to the world, no matter what they do.
