Are you saving the world?

P.E.A. Awards 2018 is scouring the planet for green superheroes – and we bet you know at least one

P.E.A. Awards 2018

Some superheroes wear their powers on their sleeves. Others are more like Clark Kent by day, and do all their secret heroic acts on their own time.

What we can say for sure is that the actions of individuals are helping to change the world for the better. Almost overnight, we decided to say no to single-use plastics – and the government and supermarkets have been forced to listen.

Whether you want to tell the world about your team’s tireless commitment to a sustainability project, or know someone who’s saving the world from a quiet garden shed, the P.E.A. Awards wants to hear from you.

A festival for superheroes

Now in its eighth year, the P.E.A. (People. Environment. Achievement.) Awards, in association with Octopus Energy, is the UK’s leading sustainability awards. It honours the individuals and teams behind the products, services and businesses that are changing the face of our planet.

Across sectors ranging from money to the arts, the P.E.A. Awards identifies and rewards the green heroes who are taking matters into their own hands and providing inspiring alternatives to business as usual.

These sustainability pioneers are recognised and rewarded at an event packed with music, entertainment and plenty of great food and drink!

This year’s ceremony will be held at Valley Fest in Chew Magna, near Bristol, on 03 August. Those attending will be able to party all night long at the gorgeous festival for free.

How to enter

Entering the P.E.A. Awards is a free and straightforward process. You can enter yourself, nominate a friend, colleague or any other individual who has inspired you or put forward a team, a product or a business.
