Tops Day Nurseries is celebrating after one of its colleagues was named Sustainability Hero at the Big Sustainability Awards 2026, recognising an outstanding commitment to driving sustainability and positive environmental change.
The award was presented to Sandy, Data and Sustainability Manager at Tops Day Nurseries, recognising her passion for sustainability and her contribution to the organisation’s ongoing commitment to putting planet before profit.
Sandy has played an important role in championing sustainability across Tops, helping to embed environmentally responsible thinking into everyday nursery life and encouraging colleagues, children and families to make positive changes for the planet.
Sustainability is at the heart of Tops Day Nurseries, from helping children develop an understanding and appreciation of the natural world to continually looking for ways to reduce the environmental impact of its nurseries.
The Sustainability Hero recognition celebrates the passion, creativity and commitment behind this work and the continued drive to create positive environmental change for children, families and their communities.
The award was presented by Lady Angela Stansfield-Smith, making the occasion even more memorable.
Speaking about the recognition, Sandy said: “I was absolutely delighted to receive the award, and to have it presented by Lady Angela Stansfield-Smith made the occasion even more special. This recognition is a reflection of the passion and commitment across Tops to keep putting the planet at the heart of what we do.”
The award adds to Tops Day Nurseries’ growing recognition for its approach to sustainability and reinforces its ambition to inspire positive environmental change throughout the early years sector.
