A Hertfordshire based charity has been nominated for the Community Organisation Award in the National Diversity Awards.
Potential Kids, based in Welwyn Hatfield, provides learning, social and sports opportunities to neurodiverse children.
The award, in association with ITV News, honours positive role models, entrepreneurs and community organisations.

"We are a very small charity run by a small group of volunteers, that are working tirelessly to support Neurodiverse children and young people and their families in Hertfordshire.
"Our charity is very inclusive and is a safe and welcoming organisation whom welcomes anyone who needs any help, no matter who they are or where they come from.
"We are a very diverse group of parent/carers coming together to offer support and make a difference in our community."
