Celebrating environmental heroes since 1990, the Tidy Wales Awards shine a spotlight on the individuals, groups, schools, and businesses making a real difference in their communities. From protecting nature to promoting sustainability, these champions go the extra mile to keep Wales clean, green, and safe.
The 2025 awards, proudly sponsored once again by Wales & West Housing, feature a wide range of categories. While some, such as our Volunteer of the Year Award, are well established, we have refreshed others for this year, including the Uniting for Environmental Impact and Cleaner Communities Awards.
Thinking of nominating someone you know? You can nominate yourself, a group, school, organisation, friend(s), family or colleague(s).

We’re excited to discover and share the inspiring stories behind this year’s 2025 nominees.
