Conservation Awards
Apply for the 2026 Conservation Awards for your chance to win additional funding for your Channel Island conservation project.
The aims of the awards
First established by Insurance Corporation over three decades ago, the Conservation Awards have long been committed to acknowledging, supporting and rewarding meaningful conservation efforts across the Channel Islands. Today, that founding commitment continues under Intact Insurance.
The awards celebrate individuals and groups engaged in environmental stewardship, inviting all those actively involved in conservation work to share their projects and achievements.
From large-scale initiatives to small, community-led efforts - and at every stage of development - we welcome submissions from established organisations, schools, youth groups and young achievers.
Through the awards, our aim is to shine a spotlight on these initiatives, recognising and showcasing the vital environmental and conservation work taking place throughout the Channel Islands.
