DON’T MISS THE AWARDS SHOW, NEXT TUESDAY AT 8PM ON

Organ law hero Max is surprised by PM at No10 May meets & greets all the proud award winners

HONOURED Jeremy Corbyn with young Max

who was nine when she died in a car accident, were in the audience. Their decision to donate her organs gave Max life.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn presented Max’s award and told him: “You’ve changed the law. You’re not even old enough to vote and you’ve changed the law.”

Max fronted the Mirror’s Change the Law for Life, which led to a petition signed by 14,000 people. In February MPs passed a Private Members’ Bill, meaning consent to donate organs is presumed.

He also became the face of a fundraising drive for the British Heart Foundation.

Last month Mrs May declared Max’s Law will be on the statute books by 2020.

Ashley suggested Max showed Mrs May his floss dance. “Someone was showing me the floss the other day,” she said. “Can we see?” said Ashley.

“No,” replied Mrs May.

“But you’ve got some moves, Prime Minister. I’ve seen them and it’s 10 out of 10 from me,” said Ashley.

Perhaps to escape the teasing, she led Max and parents Emma, 48, and Paul, 45, of Winsford, Cheshire, into a room where the Pride of Britain winners had a reception.

The PM laughed when introduced to Ella Chadwick, who curtsied “because you look like the queen”. Ella, 11, was born with an illness that causes kidney failure and underwent 40 operations and a kidney transplant from her grandmother.

She won a Child of Courage award for fundraising for Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital. “I’ve got you a present,” she told the PM, handing her a half-melted chocolate sweet.

Mrs May said: “That’s very kind of you. I shall save that for later if you don’t mind.”

Omar Sharif, the Prince’s Trust Young Achiever, told her how he had turned his life around to become a personal trainer after three friends died from knife crime and he found himself homeless. Emma Picton-Jones, 29, of Pembrokeshire, won a Special Recognition award for tackling the isolation felt by agricultural workers after her husband Dan took his own life.

Teenager of Courage Joe Rowlands, 14, felt shy when he met the PM but his dad Paul, 50, explained how he had saved his life after a kayak accident off Anglesey.

Lifetime Achievement winner Eddie O’Gorman, who founded a charity that has raised £230million after losing two children to cancer, was thanked by the PM. She praised the “wonderful work” of Icolyn Smith, a TSB Community Partner who has run an Oxford soup kitchen for 28 years.

The British Cave Rescue team were thanked for saving 12 Thai schoolboys and their football coach from flooded caves. Jason Mallinson said: “We are not heroes.”

The RAF and West Midlands Fire Service were also congratulated.

Before leaving, Mrs May said: “It is humbling to hear your story. There are always tears watching Pride of Britain.” B TAKE PRIDE All the winners
