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 โclass-leading, not just in publishing but for all mediaโ,ย while another said theirs was a โstandout case of systemic embedding of sustainability into an organisationโ.
โWeโreย really proudย of this recognition.ย Weโveย 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 weโreย seeing to making positive, long-term change.ย Thereโsย more to do, but this is a fantastic milestone.โย
