00:00 Hi, I want to congratulate everybody who's already been nominated for the Prism Start
00:07 Awards and also to say for those of you who know any unsung heroes, wonderful SMA businesses
00:13 in the Peterborough area, please nominate them or ask them to be nominated because there
00:19 are so many amazing things that are going on locally and there are so many people, prison
00:23 leavers, homeless people, disadvantaged people, who need support and one of the best ways
00:28 to support people is by giving them a job and I know in the Thimpson business we have
00:32 over 600 prison leavers who work for us and it's been one of the best things we've ever
00:36 done. So, there are so many unsung heroes, there are so many wonderful things that are
00:40 going on, we just need to know about it, so if you do, please apply. This is the first
00:45 year of the awards and I know it's going to be fantastic.
