getting the stifkit

We don't tend to go in for awards ourselves as we see our job more as helping our members get them (and boy, do they get them...the collective CoaST member mantelpiece is now propped up with girt great girders to keep it from crashing through the floorboards) but there are a few people we'd like to thank for their recognition....

Cornwall Women of Achievement Awards 2007 - we won the Environment and Sustainability Category...thanks to all the hard work of the CoaST members!

Virgin Holidays International Responsible Tourism Awards 2009 - we got Highly Commended for Best Personal Contribution...wow!

Social Enterprise Listing Top 100 2011 - we and fellow social enterprise ReZolve were listed in the top 100 fastest growing social enterprises in the country. Blimey!

UPDATE!

2 September 2011: CoaST has just made the Top 100 SMARTA Awards; AND has been shortlisted for the Special Award for Social Impact! We're chuffed to bits, and say well done to all CoaSTies for your part in this! We don't usually ask this - but we have a chance to go on to the next stage, and we need your votes!!

Just go to www.smarta.com to register and vote - if you do, THANK YOU; and if you don't, thank you anyway for being part of the network that gets recognised like this!

SMARTA say their SMARTA100 " is a celebration of the most resourceful, original, exciting and disruptive small businesses in the UK."

We like that.  

Here's to social disruption and positive deviance. Oh, yes.
