Awards
At Venus we continuously strive to achieve our mission of being the greenest beach café and shop operator. Over the years we have been privileged enough to receive numerous awards for our activities.
We are delighted to announce that Venus was awarded the Queen's Award for Sustainable Development in April 2010 - the second time Venus has won this accolade. One of only 10 companies throughout the UK to have been awarded a sustainability honour in 2010 (and only 8 in 2005), the judges described Venus as 'a rare example of a sustainable cafe chain'.
