Business in the Community’s Awards for Excellence have become the equivalent of Hollywood’s Academy Awards for Britain’s responsible businesses. Like the Oscars, they recognise the outstanding achievements of companies and individuals making a positive impact on society in a variety of different categories.
The awards constantly evolve as new concerns arise. In recent years, climate change has come to the fore as the threat posed by global warming has been recognised. The business response has been impressive, with the boards of most large companies discussing strategies to reduce their carbon footprints.
