Dear All,

1Voice is delighted to be one of the 5 winners of this year's Guardian Charity Awards from over 700 entries. Four of us were at the Tate Gallery to receive the award last week. We will share with you our speeches made by Gregor (13) and Katie Caryer before Christmas.

There will be special edition of the Guardian this Wednesday featuring the winning projects. So look out for it!

We have also been shortlisted for this year's Community Care Awards and will be going back to London with 2 teenagers from the Teenage Project and Toby Hewson will be representing the 1Voice role model team. This promises to be
a glitzy event and we will keep you informed of how the day goes.

We are also extremely thankful to all the commitee, our team of volunteers and role models who attend our events, our funders, supporters, those that send us donations, our teenagers project, and all the amazing children and young people and their families that we work with. It must also be added that we have no paid staff at present and run on passsion and commitment plus money!

Happy Christmas to all, Katie Clarke
Chair of 1Voice
