Celebrating Community Spirit: The Rise of Positive Impact Awards

The EADT Business Awards 2026 are highlighting organizations that shine through their contributions to local communities. One such initiative that stands out is the Positive Impact in the Community Award, recognizing those that go the extra mile in supporting local projects.

Future Horizons: A Lifeline for Ex-Prisoners

Geoff Tucker, a pivotal figure in this initiative and group business development director at Norse, is enthusiastic about the Future Horizons project. Launched in 2025, this initiative plays a crucial role in aiding local businesses while also providing job opportunities for ex-prisoners. This dual approach not only helps individuals reintegrate into society but also addresses the skills shortage facing many industries today.

The Importance of Local Success Stories

Tucker emphasizes the significance of awards like these as they bring attention to local success stories, inspiring other businesses to contribute positively to their communities. By spotlighting these efforts, the awards encourage a spirit of collaboration and innovation among businesses, ultimately leading to a stronger local economy.

Inspirational Examples to Follow

Past winners such as Sunrise Studios exemplify the kind of dedication that stands out in the community. Their commitment to supporting local talent and promoting undiscovered artists speaks volumes about the impact that businesses can have when they prioritize community support alongside financial success.

As we continue to celebrate these remarkable initiatives and the businesses behind them, it becomes evident that a thriving community comes from collective effort and a commitment to uplifting one another. The EADT Business Awards serve as a reminder that every step taken towards positive change is a step towards a brighter future for all.
