Immediate, home to trusted brands that people love, picked up two awards at Campaign’sย Ad Net Zero Awards (Thursday 13 November 2025).

Immediate wonย theย Media Owner awardย forย theย Best Practice in Sustainability,ย for scaling climate action at Immediate,ย both internally and withย Immediate’sย client and audiences,ย and recognising the progress Immediate has madeย inย reducing its emissions by 18% in the last year.

One judge said that their progress was โ€œclass-leading, not just in publishing but for all mediaโ€,ย while another said theirs was a โ€œstandout case of systemic embedding of sustainability into an organisationโ€.

โ€˜Weโ€™reย really proudย of this recognition.ย Weโ€™veย focused on making sustainability part of how we work every day, from reducing our carbon footprint to supporting teams with practical tools and guidance and using the power of our brands to help our audiences live more sustainably lives. This award reflects theย hard workย of people right across Immediate and the genuine commitmentย weโ€™reย seeing to making positive, long-term change.ย Thereโ€™sย more to do, but this is a fantastic milestone.โ€™ย

BBC Gardenersโ€™ World Magazine won in the Entertainment, Gaming and Leisure category for its Make a Metre Matter campaign which encourages audiences to give over a small area of their green-space to support biodiversity, generating more than 15,000 sign-ups pledging to create new biodiversity-rich habitats.

The judges added: ‘Love the use of existing platforms to galvanise action – and also go beyond departmental strategy and targets to focus on collaboration and change making.’

The Campaign Ad Net Zero Awardsย celebrate organisations and advertising work that promotesย sustainability and helpsย reduce the industryโ€™s carbon footprint. These wins highlightย Immediateโ€™sย continued progress on sustainability, recognising the practical actions being taken across the business and the positive difference its teams and brands are making.ย
