Our annual Awards event is back once again, join us in recognising and celebrating environmental excellence for free on Wednesday 4th June, the eve of World Environment Day.

We want you to be there as we announce this year's winners, host a panel discussion on the World Environment Day theme and celebrate sustainability in Liverpool. You will also have a chance to network with a wide range of environmental professionals across sectors during our networking reception.

Join us for a morning session with Mersey Rivers Trust:

We have secured a presentation from the wonderful people at Mersey Rivers Trust who will join us in the morning to talk about their local projects that are protecting the rivers of the Mersey area, what's worked well, what hasn't worked so well and possibly showcasing some of the equipment that they'll use in field.

This will be an incredible session to learn more about the local area and network with even more professionals in the field. 

This session will commence at 11am and run until 12.30pm

We will have a spot of lunch until 1.30pm when the afternoon guests arrive for the event at 2pm.
