Made for Life Organics has been given with a King’s Award for Enterprise for Sustainable Development.
Made for Life Organics is one of 252 organisations nationally to be recognised in the annual awards, announced yesterday (May 6).
Made for Life Organics has been recognised within one of the smaller categories and is one of only 29 businesses to be recognised and awarded within the Sustainable Development category.
The King’s Awards for Enterprise 2024 included 161 awards for International Trade, 59 for Innovation, 29 for Sustainable Development and eight for Promoting Opportunity (through social mobility).
The awards celebrate the success of exciting and innovative businesses which are leading the way with pioneering products or services, delivering impressive social mobility programmes, or showing their commitment to excellent sustainable development practices.
Celebrating its 21st Anniversary in May 2024, Made for Life Organics provides an education programme in Therapy through Touch for people living with cancer and other long term health issues and manufactures organic products.
The products and treatments are may offered by spas and salons across the UK and further afield.
Winwood also founded the Made for Life Foundation in 2009, a charity that supports people living with cancer, and SpaFest in 2017, a wellness event that raises funds for the charity.
Speaking about the award, Winwood said, “The Made for Life team have always been very proud of what we have achieved - both in terms of looking after the planet and people’s wellbeing.
She added, "This award proves that the Kings Awards are inclusive and that you don’t have to be huge in number to be great and change lives….for the better.”
Winwood will be presented with the award by one of The King’s representatives, a Lord-Lieutenant within the county of Cornwall where she lives, and has been invited to a Royal Reception at Windsor Castle during July.
