Forest Green Rovers - the world's greenest football club - have been shortlisted in three categories at the International AGF awards.

FGR have been nominated for the following three awards:

• Community Action Award - A strong connection with the local community and sense of community within the event or venue is celebrated here. This award recognises those demonstrating outstanding social inclusion, action for unity and acceptance between people, and positive projects that provide benefit to others beyond the event itself.

• Greener Catering Award - Food is such a significant issue for sustainability for its ethical and environmental impacts both globally and locally. By consciously crafting our consumption choices and what we support with our bellies, we can make some huge strides toward a more sustainable relationship between one another and our

  planet.

• Pied Piper Award - Who has the silver tongue and skips along like the pied piper, luring unsuspecting victims to a greener way?! This award goes to the event that has had an excellent communication and PR plan which has resulted in significant cultural or behavioural changes for the greener good within and beyond their event!

Category winners will be announced at the Green Events & Innovations conference on Tuesday, February 28.
