The City Kids Green Awards 2024 – Gold across the board!
When the editor of City Kids magazine, Victoria Evans, first devised the idea for The Green Awards, she wanted to give businesses, schools and nurseries a platform to share and promote all their hard work and innovation regarding sustainability. City Kids are passionate about building a community of like-minded companies and people who can share their knowledge and support each other while striving for the same thing: to leave the planet in a better state than it is now.
This is the first year Micro entered the Green City Kids Awards, and we were delighted with the results. Take a look below to see our spoils...
Travel and Transport: Best pushchair/Travel System.
This is the first time we have put our brand new FlexiTrike forward for an award, and it made us proud by winning Gold. If you haven't seen it, the Micro FlexiTrike is a game-changer in family travel. It combines versatility, safety, and sustainability in one clever design. With seven adaptable stages, a 360-degree rotating and reclining seat, and foldable convenience, it’s perfect for children aged 6 months to 6 years, offering forward- or parent-facing modes for every adventure.
Travel and Transport: Best Scooter/Bike/Ride-On.
The Mini Micro is the iconic scooter that started it all. It was the first scooter we ever sold and the scooter that Micro are most famous for. Over the last 20 years, the mini range has grown to include the foldable mini, the 3in1 ride-on mini, the mini plus and more, but perhaps the innovation we are most proud of is the Eco Mini with its deck crafted from discarded fishing nets, and so winning Gold in the City Kids Green Awards is a brilliant endorsement.
Lifestyle: Best Retailer.
The piece de resistance of our results from this year’s Green Awards was winning Gold for Best Retailer. We were delighted to win this category, not only because we were shortlisted alongside some fabulous brands whom we admire greatly but because in this, our 20th anniversary year, it is an acknowledgement that we are fulfilling our mission to make everyday journeys better - better for people and the planet.
