Mick Bremans, Ecover MD said: “We are delighted to be supporting the Observer Ethical Awards once again this year. Previous winners have been extremely inspirational, and Ecover has enjoyed following the progress they have made with their projects. It's an honour to be able to recognise those working to make day to day ethical living accessible and achievable, and once again we look forward to receiving some interesting, inspiring entries in 2010.”
