green-awardsDoes your group deserve some green credit? What has your project been doing that contributes to a sustainable Laois and beyond? Show us what you have done to support sustainable development. We want your story and photos or video footage. Tell us about an ecologically sound,    environmentally sustainable project you’re part of. Perhaps in food, energy, water, waste, transport,  biodiversity, local economy and much more… If it doesn’t cost the Earth we want to know about it!

This competition is open to voluntary, not for profit groups and organisations in Laois making a difference in Laois. We have €2,000 to award. The emphasis is on awareness raising and we want your story so that we can tell your story to everyone. All entries must be made available online. This competition is being organised by LEAF and funded by Laois County Council in conjunction with the Department of Community, Environment and Local Government as part of the Local Agenda 21 initiative. All entries and queries to infolaoisleaf@gmail.com via email. The closing date is Thursday, November 20th.
