National Award Winners!

Sustainable Youlgrave has won the Community Section of the national Future Friendly Awards 2008. The awards are for groups and individuals who are doing their bit to promote greater sustainability and climate awareness. Our Chairman John Youatt collected the award from Sir Trevor MacDonald at a ceremony in London at the beginning of March (see photo). Apart from the pleasure of having our efforts recognised nationally, the award also includes a £5,000 cash prize, plus access to a further £5,000 of free consultancy services, which will go a long way to helping our group's dwindling coffers.
