Green Impact Students’ Unions Special Awards
Special awards allow unions to be recognised and rewarded for exciting sustainability related projects that are not part of the Green Impact workbook criteria.
Each year we have 5-6 special awards available to unions. Unions do not need to have won any standard in order to apply one of the awards. There is guidance attached to the special awards with more information on what to do and how will you be judged. Each year we review the special awards, and add new ones were possible.
