This aims to urge thousands of youngsters to continue to try and take steps to "unlock your potential and realise the difference that you can make". The ceremony is in its inaugural year and was set up to champion the achievements of children who have made a difference to their community. Harry took to the stage to speak of 16 year-old Greta Thunberg who started a school strike for the climate outside the Swedish Parliament in August 2018. The prince recalled how Greta had been "one voice, with just one placard, sitting on her own outside the Swedish parliament" when she started her campaign, but was dismissed by many adults. He said: "She may have been just one person at the beginning, but she had a belief, a mission, and a desire to do something not just for herself but for everyone, and now - the whole world is paying attention. "Whatever your dream - every country, every community, every school, every friendship group, every family needs their own Greta - someone who can lead the way, someone who is prepared to stand up for what they believe, and show how much they care for the people in their lives and the community around them." The Duke has also often spoken previously about his own issues with mental health. He used part of his speech to emphasis how important it is to understand your own mental health as much as your own physical health. Harry told the audience: "Sometimes a lack of mental fitness can be the biggest blocker to our own ability to succeed. "By understanding our own mental health as much as we do our physical health, by knowing what makes us thrive rather than just survive, we'll be unlocking such incredible potential for ourselves and more young people up and down the country. "So, for everyone involved in making this happen, thank you." Earlier the prince, who was casually dressed in a white open neck shirt, blue chinos, tan suede boots and a grey blazer smiled, spoke with and posed for pictures with many of the young nominees at the awards ceremony. Awards were given to young people who have been deemed to have made a difference in their community, have a breakthrough talent or overcome challenging circumstances. OnSide chairman John Roberts said: "Talent is evenly distributed but opportunity is not. "People need to be able to believe. Harry is amazing at giving people footsteps to follow in and helping them to believe they can." OnSide Youth Zones is a national charity which has 13 centres spread throughout the UK comprising of 50,000 members. The Youth Zones are based in disadvantaged areas and are open to youngsters aged 8-19 years old
