I set up CCE because of a genuine drive to help Croydon accelerate towards net zero and take everyone along with us. I will continue to put our customers first, and want to say a huge thanks to the Young Energy Professionals Network for this huge honour!

I am over the moon to have won this award! I was up against other incredible Young Energy Professionals, all worthy of this award. To me, our customers are our volunteers, members, the people at our solar sites, the residents we support with free energy advice, our board and our wonderful community.

Wow 🏆 Last night, I was awarded the Young Energy Professionals (YEP) Forum Customer Champion 2025 Award for my work with Croydon Community Energy! It was awarded to the candidate who has ensured the customer is placed front and centre in their work on behalf of the company.
