A new Lockdown Award was introduced this year and was given to the Pollinator Project, who engaged numerous members of the community throughout lockdown, promoting the conservation of nature.

Additionally, the Young Conservationists Award went to La Houguette School Eco Club; the £500 Best Education Project Award was taken by the Alderney Wildlife Trust for their ‘Exploring Our Seas’ initiative; and the Unsung Hero Award went to Angela Salmon for coordinating the Guernsey Conservation Volunteers.

Finally, the Peter Walpole People’s Choice Award – named after the founder of the competition – was given to the Guernsey Marine Litter Project, managed by Richard Lord.
