Camden Celebrates Environmental Excellence

Camden organisations demonstrating environmental excellence were recognised by Councillor Angela Mason, the Deputy Leader of Camden Council, and Councillor Jonathon Simpson, Mayor of Camden, at an awards ceremony at the CBI Conference centre on Thursday 1^st July 2010.

The EECO Awards 2010 were judged by a panel of experts from Alliance members Envido, Camco, and the Bloomsbury Combined Heat and Power Consortium and from the Mayor of London’s Green 500 scheme.

With an impressive 30% increase on applications for this year's awards, the competition for prizes was always going to be tough and so it proved to be. There were some excellent applications from across all the categories and from organisations of all sectors and sizes. The judges had a tough time deciding which organisations deserved particular praise and in fact all the applicants were congratulated on the night for their efforts. However, the judges did decide and here's who they chose:
