The International Green Apple Awards for the Built Environment and Architectural Heritage were launched in 2000 and they have since become a prestigious annual event: one of the major award schemes recognising and rewarding environmental endeavour in this sector around the world.
There is no entry fee and nominations are invited from anyone who has made a positive contribution to our built environment, or helped to preserve the country's architectural heritage - owners, building contractors, local authorities, developers, architects, home builders, etc., etc.
If you feel you have helped to improve our built environment (or you know someone who has) simply download and complete the Entry Form. You can complete the form on screen within the PDF (each line is an active field that can be typed into), but please print off your completed document and send it to us, in the post to:
The Mill House, Mill Lane, Earls Barton, Northampton, NN6 0NR
We appreciate that an email facility would be more environmentally friendly, but when we offered that facility it was badly used and abused by some applicants.
All winners will be given free £95 tickets for the award presentation ceremony at a top London.venue. All of the other details can be found on the form.
Good luck.
