This year’s Mini Grand Designers competition has upped the stakes and tasked the Year 7 children from Prendergast Ladywell School to design and make their own miniature models using recycled materials. The winners will be announced by Kevin McCloud during the show.

Returning to London after its successful launch last year, Green Living Live continues to showcase eco-friendly products and services from companies that put sustainability at the heart of their business.

The GREEN GRADS return with a brilliant showcase from recent graduates from UK universities who will be presenting their ideas for a greener and cleaner future with a mix of ‘green’ products, installations and films that portray sustainability, biophilia and biodiversity.

With much more to be announced in the coming months, and the dedicated Grand Build, Grand Kitchens & Bathrooms, Grand Gardens and Grand Interiors project zones, there is more to look forward to than ever before at Grand Designs Live 2023.
