The Eden Project is a symbol of hope. They demonstrate that by working together and with nature they can leave the world better than they found it. The visitor destination in Cornwall, is nestled in a huge crater, where massive biomes house the largest rainforest in captivity. Stunning plants, exhibitions and stories serve as a backdrop to their striking contemporary gardens, summer concerts and exciting year-round family events.
Construction of the site began in 1998, with 230 miles of scaffolding used to build the Biomes earning Eden its very first entry into the Guinness Book of Records. They opened the doors to the public in March 2001 and have since welcomed over 20 million visitors, contributing over £2 billion to the Cornish economy. Eden is a spectacular destination, with world class horticulture and awe-inspiring architecture but what really makes them unique, is the people that bring it to life.
Eden Project firmly believe in rewarding employees for their continued efforts throughout the year. Each quarter they invite employees to nominate colleagues for an 'act of kindness' during the quarter. The prize for each kindness nomination is a Love to Shop high street voucher. This is a small, but lovely way of recognising some of the small acts that would otherwise go unnoticed and conveying their values of connection and commonality.
Beyond this they hold an annual awards ceremony at their all-staff Eden Gathering, where they announce an Employee of the Year, Manager of the Year, Volunteer of the Year and a host of Unsung Hero awards.
