Noreen Bray makes Climate Change the focus of her year as 'The Prince's Ambassador for Business in the Community
When Good Relations Wales’ Chair, Noreen Bray, was announced as the winner of the Prince's Ambassador Award 2007 at the Business in the Community Wales Awards for Excellence Celebration Event last June, the company was delighted and as the first PR Consultancy in the UK to become carbon neutral, it was no surprise when she chose to make Climate Change the main focus of her work during the year.
The accolade, announced via video by HRH The Prince of Wales himself, recognised Noreen's outstanding contribution to business and corporate social responsibility. The award is ‘for individuals whose leadership and commitment to responsible business has resulted in changes and improvements inside their own company and who have also inspired other organisations to take action.' In congratulating Noreen, Prince Charles also referred to the fact that Good Relations Wales is part of Chime, Britain's largest independent communications consultancy, and praised the group for being carbon neutral from 1 January 2007.
During the last twelve months, Noreen has worked with the Business in the Community team in Wales to establish a Climate Change Business Champions Group which she now chairs and has spoken at a number of business events to raise awareness of the economic impact of climate change. She also chaired the Mayday Summit in South Wales linking up with 11 other locations across the UK and involving over 1500 businesspeople.
The team here is thrilled at Noreen's new business ‘ambassador' status and very proud to be part of her team and of an organisation that actively encourages responsible business practice which has such a positive impact in the marketplace, environment, community and workplace.
