bigHead is proud to share that quality manager Vinny Bacon has been shortlisted for the 2025 OnHand Impact Awards in the category of Sustainability Star of the Year.
The award places Vinny among a select group of 50 OnHand users who are setting the standard for environmental action. This is a well-earned acknowledgement of the everyday choices he's made to support sustainability, and a testament to the values we hold at bigHead.
Small changes, big impact
When Vinny's journey with OnHand began, he wasn't sure how much he could contribute. "Time isn't something I can easily pledge due to family commitments. But once I saw the lifestyle pledges available, I realised small changes were achievable, and they really do make a difference."
From switching to a sustainable web browser to washing clothes at lower temperatures, Vinny has built a routine around simple actions that help our planet and community. "These changes gave me a sense of betterment - that I'm making a difference - and I feel really good about that."
Today, those small actions are a part of Vinny's everyday life. His commitment has not only earned him a spot on the national shortlist but also inspired others across bigHead's business.
Matthew, bigHead Managing Director, says: "Since we started with OnHand a few years ago, it's been no surprise to me that Vinny has led the way with his dedication to the cause, day in day out. A human dynamo."
Vinny's recognition is part of a wider story at bigHead. Over the past year, the team has carried out 4,116 good deeds through OnHand, planted 283 trees in the bigHead forest, and contributed to a 11mt reduction in CO2 - roughly equivalent to the annual emissions of two UK homes.
