2024 welcomes a few other exciting new introductions, including a beautiful, new ceramic trophy commission designed by Babs Belshaw of The Blackheath Pottery in Coleraine. The new ‘Green Legacy Award’ will also be introduced, set to honour individuals who have contributed a significant impact on sustainability in Ireland through leadership in advocacy, policy, education, or innovation.
In addition, the event welcomes its charity partner, Visit Belfast to head up this year’s charity raffle in their locally led initiative, ‘Changing The Menu. For Good’. This initiative works to raise funds for those experiencing fuel poverty, with all money raised at the gala event donated to The Trussell Trust to help support locally vulnerable people and communities, challenge the structural issues that lock people in poverty, and campaign for change to end the need for food banks.
Danielle McCormick, Founder of the All-Ireland Sustainability Awards, emphasises the importance of this year’s event: "We have a lot to shout about and celebrate in 2024 as the sustainability agenda continues to accelerate and evolve across the Island. I am absolutely delighted to welcome our new headliner, Climeaction, and all of our fantastic event partners in celebrating those who integrate sustainability into their core values, and to recognising those who have made long-standing contributions to sustainability in Ireland in our new Green Legacy Award."
With 15 categories ranging from ‘Tech for Good’ and Sustainable Tourism to Green Marketing and Net-Zero Initiatives, there are plenty of options for showcasing projects across the wider sustainability agenda. Supported by NIE Networks, Danske Bank, Everun, AD Sustainability, Adler & Allan, Visit Belfast and media partner U105 to name but a few, the awards promise to be a landmark event in the sustainability calendar.
