This category recognises those institutions that are starting their sustainability journey and is only open to those who have not applied for a Green Gown Award previously. Initiatives could include those which have achieved significant sustainability achievements in a relative short period and/or with a restricted budget, e.g. quick wins, good progress from a low base in a short period of time. Applications must show how learning from others has been implemented. Applications must show substantial commitment from senior management and go beyond legal compliance.
NEW FOR 2015 - Judges will have the discretion to award up to 2 winners for this category to distinguish between Colleges and Universities. However, this will only be done when applications are of a high quality and is not mandatory for judges to do so.
