It’s a testament not only to our amazing team but to all of the pioneering organisations we work with to push the sustainability agenda and drive tangible social action. It is fantastic to see recognition for the important role of communications in helping to achieve the SDGs. We believe they represent the biggest global challenges of our time and work internally on our own practices and externally with our clients to create accessible, engaging and relevant solutions.

'Being shortlisted and winning one of this years awards means so much to the team at Tideway, as it is recognition for all the hard work that is involved to ensure that the sustainability ethos becomes fully integrated into the delivery of the much needed piece of infrastructure for London. On a personal note, collecting the award on behalf of the team and sharing the evening with a few of them was the highlight of my career to date.'

'Our experience of the edie awards is exciting, rewarding and very friendly! Everyone we have been in touch with has been incredibly and genuinely helpful and encouraging, which as a SME we have really appreciated. We were delighted to be named as finalists and be invited to the awards dinner, which was just lovely and our table, number 54 was very special – full of warm-hearted, incredible people with life-changing stories – inspirational. It was therefore a total shock when we won our category and we have since been overwhelmed with messages of support and congratulations. Again as an SME, we really didn’t think that we had any chance, and quite honestly we had settled for great food and a night out! We really hope we can use our edie success as a platform to expand our social and environmental impact over the coming months. We plan to keep in touch with the individuals and companies that we had the pleasure of meeting (and who we would never had had the opportunity to meet) and explore opportunities for collaboration moving forwards.' JPA Furniture - winner of the Social Sustainability & Community Development award 2019
