His nominator, Noreen Khan the founder of the charity Neesie, said: “Through his tireless and selfless efforts, Faiz truly has become a pillar of support for so many people.”
Dr Simon Hinchliffe, headmaster at BGS, said: “We’re very proud of Faiz. He’s a credit to the school, and, like so many young people here, willing to give his time to make others’ lives better. Well done.”
