CCCG Highly Commended for Green and Sustainability work at Haringey Community Impact Awards 2023

CCCG’s Green Academy has received recognition for its efforts in Green and Sustainability at the Haringey Community Expo 2023.

Capital City College Group’s (CCCG) Green Academy was Highly Commended in the Green and Sustainability category as part of the Haringey Community Impact Awards. The awards were presented during the Haringey Community Expo 2023 which took place on 1 December at Tottenham Green Pools and Fitness Centre.

More than 250 Haringey residents and representatives from voluntary organisations gathered for the event, which was organised by the Bridge Renewal Trust in partnership with Haringey Council. The Haringey Community Expo aims to recognise and celebrate the work of local voluntary and community organisations. 

During the event, over 70 local projects and services presented their efforts at a diverse array of stalls. There was also a panel discussion on the topic of culture and creativity, which allowed key community members to share their insights. 

Rachel Hughes, Chair of The Bridge Renewal Trust, said: “We are immensely proud of being part of this community and being able to showcase the work of our colleagues in the Voluntary Sector at the Haringey Community Expo. Thank you to all who participated and supported this event. Together, we have laid the foundation for another year of community growth, collaboration, and excellence”.

The Haringey Community Impact Awards were presented to a diverse array of exceptional organisations to mark their contributions to the community. CCCG’s Green Academy was Highly Commended in acknowledgement and appreciation of its impact in the area of Green and Sustainability. The Green Academy is part of the Mayor of London’s Skills Academies and works closely with Haringey council and supports local residents through its training pathways. With extensive links to employers within the green construction sector, the Green Academy aims to assist with the provision of a skilled workforce and address the skill shortage in the construction sector.

Mishary Alfahad, Head of Green Academy at CCCG, accepted the award on behalf of the college. He said: “We’re honoured to be amongst the nominees and to receive an award at the Haringey Community Impact Awards for Green and Sustainability. It’s incredibly rewarding to be recognised for our efforts this year. The Green Academy is heavily focused on supporting those from underrepresented groups and we’re proud to be having a noticeable impact in such a diverse borough.”

Congratulations to everyone at the Green Academy!
