Rejected petition Knighthood for Nick Knowles from DIY SOS.

I call on the UK Government, Members of Parliament and the general public to support a Knighthood for Nick Knowles from DIY SOS amongst other programmes.

The work he has done for the disabled, disadvantaged and injured servicemen deserves an award for his commitment to the betterment of the UK.
