She taught me we can all give

PRINCE William paid tribute to the "courage, compassion and commitment" of his late mother Princess Diana as he celebrated the winners of an award in her name.

The Prince of Wales and his estranged brother Prince Harry last night took part in a ceremony to honour recipients of the Diana Legacy Award.

But they scheduled their appearances hours apart from one another.

While William addressed the 20 winners in a speech at the ceremony at London's Science Museum, the Duke of Sussex was set to speak on a video call after his brother had left the venue.

Royal sources said it was "a great shame" that the warring princes could not come together on the 25th anniversary of the awards, established two years after Diana's death in 1997.

Referring to his late mother, William said: "She taught me that everyone has the potential to give something back; that everyone in need deserves a supporting hand in life.

"That legacy is something that both Catherine and I have sought to focus on through our work, as have the 50,000 young people who have received a Diana Award over the past 25 years." In his speech, the heir said the winners, chosen by a panel of judges chaired by Baroness Doreen Lawrence, reflected. "my mother's belief that young people can change the world".
