Acknowledging how difficult it can be for smaller charities to raisemoney, keynote speaker at the awards and member of the judging panel,Sarah Brown, described today's winners as "leaders in their field".

Speaking of her own involvement with a number of charities shecongratulated winners attending the event for the passion they broughtto the work and their "unparalleled impatience" to do good."

Fellow judge and chief executive of NCVO, Stuart Etherington,praised the winners: "There was agreement among the judges. What wasimpressive was how these organisations were very focused not only onwhat they were doing but on where they were going. They all had a clearidea of how they would sustain what they were doing."
