Landscape Legacy Award
This award celebrates a person, group, or organisation that has left, or aims to leave, a significant, lasting legacy to the landscape profession, to public perception of landscape, or to the environment.
That legacy could be embodied within a single project or a body of work, it could have been achieved through lobbying and advocacy, or it could even be through an enduring contribution to education, research, policy or practice.
If you feel your work has, or will have, an enduring legacy, then please nominate it for the Landscape Legacy Award.
What we are celebrating
There are many ways in which a lasting legacy can be achieved. Below are just some of the ways past entrants have demonstrated this:
- Enduring contribution to knowledge and practice: Advancing landscape education, pioneering research, shaping policy frameworks or elevating professional practice in ways that continue to inspire and inform.
- Commitment to inclusion, access, biodiversity and climate action: Championing equitable opportunities, embedding biodiversity and resilience into projects, and driving climate‑positive outcomes that have reshaped the sector.
- Transformative projects or programmes: Leading or influencing initiatives or projects whose vision and impact have become benchmarks, resonating and evolving long after their delivery.
- Inspiring the next generation: Advocating for the value of landscape, engaging new audiences, mentoring emerging talent and nurturing the future leaders of our field.
- Positive impact on community health and wellbeing: Designing places that enhance physical and mental wellbeing, foster social cohesion and deliver lasting benefits to people and the environment.
