British-Indian Schoolgirl Wins PM’s Points Of Light Award

London: Moksha Roy, a seven-year-old girl of Indian origin, has been awarded the Prime Minister's Point of Light Award since the age of three for her volunteer work in various sustainability initiatives, including fundraising for children.

Moksha Roy, who accepted the award from UK Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden last week, began her journey by volunteering with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) initiative to tackle microplastic pollution

The initiative, which has the backing of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the UN team, makes Moksha the world's youngest sustainability advocate at the age of three.

"I am very happy to receive the 'Point of Light' award. I hope that children and adults understand that caring for the planet and its people and making small changes in daily life should not be reserved for a few. It is like brushing our teeth. We brush our teeth to protect our teeth and avoid pain; in the same way, we can take care of the planet, not for others but for ourselves, and stay safe," said Moksha.

Moksha continues to educate young people in the UK and thousands of children around the world about sustainability through her schools through broadcast, media and online platforms.

According to the Prime Minister's Office, the Point of Light Award is awarded to an outstanding volunteer individual who has contributed to the community.
