At first glance, the simplicity of the Award is deceiving - how can something so uncomplicated drive so much impact? For me, that was the greatest lesson learned from HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh: make it purposeful, keep it simple, and "get on with it" (his use of dry wit running a close second).

The straightforward design of the Award has made it easily accessible and scalable; it truly resonates with youth from all corners of the globe. His Royal Highness' decades of leadership and nurturing catalysed the Award into a force for good that, with the ongoing leadership of HRH The Prince Edward and Secretary General, John May, will continue to leave an exponentially positive, indelible mark on our communities.

I take the Duke of Edinburgh's call to action as a daily challenge and a reminder that everyone one of us can make a difference. As a supporter, I am extremely proud to be playing my small part in this legacy.
