UK AWARE 2010

UK AWARE is the brainchild of Danny Carnegie (a fire-fighter) who was so baffled about how to make positive changes in his life that he decided to cash in his pension, set up UK AWARE and bring sustainable business and consumers face to face. Danny Carnegie, Founder of UK AWARE, said 'UK AWARE is now firmly established as the UK's must attend green event. With...green cars, beauty makeovers, fashion shows, a kids' area, business advice and thousands of green products and services on show, UK AWARE 2010 will offer the complete solution for contemporary sustainable living.'

UK AWARE has chosen Olympia because it was imperative to use a venue which aligned itself with UK AWARE's ethics. In an industry which traditionally has a large carbon footprint, London Olympia is setting an industry standard having won an AEO award in recognition of their sustainability initiatives.
