We're celebrating! The Pineapple Awards shortlist is out and we're delighted that Lee Valley Ice Centre is a finalist in the Climate Resilience category. Lee Valley Ice Centre was designed with sustainability at its core by architects FaulknerBrowns. Collaboration with Expedition Engineering Ltd means ice melt from the twin rink centre is filtered and used to sustain an ecologically rich wetland habitat outside the centre, whilst 300 solar panels provide power inside, green roofs, and landscape design and planting by LDA Design includes wildflower meadows, wildlife corridors and 150 new native trees. The centre's ecological credentials are now the centre of a Sustainability in Action programme for local school children run by our Learning and Engagement team in partnership with London Borough of Waltham Forest The Pineapples 🍍 recognise projects that make a positive social, environmental and economic impact in their communities. #Pineapples Joanna Asia Milewska Max Fordham LLP GLL The Developer and Festival of Place Dan Buck Stephen Bromberg shaun dawson Alison Moore (nee Halstead) Caroline Jenkins Jacob Ranson Tom Lee
