The British Urban Regeneration Association (BURA) Waterways Renaissance Awards 2009 - open for nominations Friday 25th July until 30th September 2008. If you think that your waterway's scheme has made a difference, enter now; raise your profile and showcase your team's achievements to the rest of the UK. The awards recognise a wide range of projects across ten categories.
The Awards, established by BURA in partnership with The Waterways Trust in 2002, have since recognised over 130 projects, ranging from exciting multi-use developments, sustainable environmental initiatives and educational projects changing the lives of disadvantaged young people, to innovative engineering schemes and the restoration of historic canal structures, basins and buildings.
BURA facilitates the rapid exchange of ideas, experience and solutions within regeneration. It is acknowledged as the leading independent organisation championing regeneration. Non-core funded, its unique strength derives from its wide range of members in the private, public and community sectors; this distinguishes it from any other sector interest group.
