Inenco’s Kelly Dean then announced the winner as the Birmingham Community Healthcare Estates & Facility Team. The judges said of the team’s entry: “Good measurable deliverables set out. The COVID pandemic delayed the start of the sustainability journey, but despite this, the team have managed to achieve several key projects, making real progress towards the Trusts’ Net Zero target.”
