What are the Awards?
The Green Footprints Challenge has enjoyed another highly successful year, with many local businesses, groups and individuals across North West Leicestershire signing up and getting involved. The Challenge encourages everyone across the district to do their bit to reduce their impact on the environment and increase their Green Footprint.
It‘s important to recognise all the wonderful work that is already going on across the district and the Green Footprints Awards aim to do just that. There are five awards in total, each one recognising the people or groups who have made an outstanding contribution to the environment in North West Leicestershire.
