Over the years, Pride of Britain has also recognised those who have doggedly uncovered the truth about some of the biggest scandals of injustice in our nation’s history - the Davids fighting the Goliath establishment figures - in the very spirit of our newspaper’s values. Ahead of the 25th anniversary, landmarks and buildings across Britain, including the London Eye, Blackpool Tower, Cardiff’s Millennium Centre and the Kelpies in Falkirk, have been lit up in red, white and blue to honour our winners.
