It is easy to overlook many of the good things young people do.
Just read our story today of the award-winning youngsters in the Vale of White Horse.
They include a girl who cares for her young siblings, a young man who looks after his disabled twin, a girl who battled against a serious disease, and teenagers who set up a youth club.
Well done to them all - and what an inspiration to others.
