In association with
Forty-four films. Forty-four incredible achievements. Their subject matter is as eclectic as the cultures and continents they span. They give us 44 new reasons to focus on the theme that unites us all: sustainability.
As the celebrated environmentalist Robert Swan said, ‘The greatest threat to our planet is the belief that someone else will save it.’
The scale of the task ahead is both unprecedented and daunting. It requires a change so great it’s hard to know what it will look like. And while many of us try our best to reduce our carbon footprint, it can seem like a losing battle.
But it isn’t. Because change starts with us.
Some of us are fortunate enough to be able to make a difference at work. Being sustainable doesn’t necessarily mean spending money. It means building a green business. At Fastflow, that encompasses everything from our behaviour in the office, to the materials and approach we take to construction.
Our environmental responsibility led me to sponsor these awards, but the relationship has been two way. The films we have watched for a third successive year have encouraged us to do all we can to create more sustainable housing and infrastructure. They have also led to our ceasing to use the word ‘sustainability’. We now say ‘survivability’.
I hope you all enjoy the evening and these fantastic awards. If we take away one thing, I hope it’s this: a desire to build on the important work already being done, and a willingness to make a difference.

greetings from tveAs awards coordinator,
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed speaking to so many of you in the lead-up to this evening. It’s great to see new companies entering their films, and many returning to enter
more of their films. The corporate world is realising
that sustainability is both pragmatically vital and environmentally necessary, and I’m
proud that we’re able to showcase the work of companies such as you, at the forefront of that. If you’d like to speak to me about next year’s awards, please contact me any time - [email protected]. I hope you have a lovely evening.

For three decades tve has harnessed the power of film to inspire change for a greener and fairer world. This year we’ve challenged Minecrafters to create sustainable worlds, Instagrammers to produce videos about saving water, and vloggers to talk passionately about climate action. We’ve made films about alternative energy and pioneered an
innovative public health initiative in India, using film to bring
about change. As tve executive director, I am proud to provide a platform for companies at the cutting edge of sustainability. Tonight,
you are both inspiring other companies to be
bold in sustainability and raising invaluable funds for tve. Thank you for your support.
Cheryl Campbelltve Executive director
Rollo GordonAwards coordinator
For over 30 years tve has been inspiring change for a greener, fairer world through film. Now the corporate world is inspiring change, too, to ensure the future of our planet and to inspire others to play a bigger role in important sustainability issues.
Thank you to everyone who has been involved with tonight’s event, in particular our sponsors and supporters and our media partners Free@Last TV and the University of Westminster. These Awards will inspire change with television and online viewers long after this event is over!
I wish you all a happy and enjoyable evening.

“We see how companies big and small are driving environmental and social change”
Welcome to the fifth tve Global Sustainability Film Awards.
Tonight’s awards event is a special occasion to congratulate those
shortlisted and to celebrate with the winners. It is also an excellent opportunity to see how organisations, big and small, are driving environmental and social change through the
powerful, eloquent and evocative films entered this
year.
Mei Sim Lai OBE DLAwards president
No matter how big the star, their first steps on the road to fame were probably precarious and taken with some trepidation.
Brad Pitt, Clint Eastwood and Sylvester Stalone, for example, all started out as extras, putting
in a great deal of work in the background before their talent gained the recognition that it
deserved.
Like them, after 21 years in business, the Fastflow Group knows the value of working hard
behind the scenes, preparing for the opportunity to step into the limelight.
In the early days, we diligently beavered away in the background, maintaining and servicing
infrastructure that is essential for everyday life.
And now, having earned our clients’ trust, we have been given the chance to be centre stage.
The work we do on our customers’ water, energy and affordable housing assets puts us firmly
in the spotlight.
When we install or repair services in the street, or enter someone’s home to repair a leaking
tap, fit a new kitchen, roof or bathroom, we are the public face of our clients.
So we are well aware that we simply cannot afford to fluff our lines. Each of the Group’s
three divisions shares a commitment to the highest standards of customer service, technical
expertise and efficiency.
Every day we help customers with 150,000 homes and over five million square feet of
commercial property to repair and maintain. Excellent water management is provided across
networks serving almost three million people and specialist diversion, repair and maintenance
is carried out on the UK high pressure gas transmission networks.
Playing our part in a sustainable future
Whether it’s as an extra, understudy or the star, we are more than happy to play our part in
ensuring our clients receive recognition for working in a sustainable way, as several have done
recently:
• The National Grid was named Responsible Business of the Year by Business in the
Community, thanks to its commitment to sustainable energy engineering.
• Northumbrian Water Limited received its second Queen’s Award for Enterprise because of
its outstanding performance in delivering sustainable development.
• A2Dominion, one of the UK’s leading housing groups, was presented with a Silver SHIFT
(Sustainable Homes Index For Tomorrow) Award in recognition of the quality of its homes
in a prestigious environmental award scheme.
The Fastflow Group is delighted to have played a role in each of these achievements and we
look forward to helping all of our clients to excel in their field by operating smoothly, efficiently
and with what we now term survivability.
So fundamental is the need to conserve and protect our planet that we cannot survive unless
we take a more serious approach to responsible use of our natural resources.
We are proud to be sponsoring the tv/e Global Sustainability Film Awards for the third
successive year, as well as supporting charities like WaterAid - which are focused on
sustainability and the environment.
We congratulate everyone involved in this fantastic charity. Whoever wins the awards, we are
all the stronger for your efforts.

We see with each succeeding year of the tve Global Sustainability Film Awards that more companies understand why s u s t a i n a b i l i t y should lie at the heart of all they do. Many companies now recognise the returns they get from taking a long-term approach to social and environmental challenges. They see how urgent it is to align profit-making with securing fundamental planetary assets - water, soils, forests and oceans. If we want to deliver prosperity for all the world’s people, it’s this corporate approach that will help make it happen. The films in this year’s Awards showcase remarkable corporate pioneers.
