Lions of Action
AS A PRIDE, LET US TAKE ACTION!
THE COMPETITION HAS NOW STARTED BUT YOUR SOCIETY CAN STILL SIGN UP!
What is Lions of Action?
Lions of Action is a sustainability competition for societies and sport clubs. It is a creative and rewarding way for you to get inspiration and recognition for building sustainability on the De Montfort University Campus.
How can students get involved?
To sign your club or society up by completing the online application form here.
How does it work?
The competition consists of different tasks broken down into five challenges:
- Starting Sustainable
- Get Involved
- Take Action
- Think Big Picture
- Get Creative
Every time the society or club completes a challenge, found in the guidebook, they upload evidence social media or through email and their points will be added. At the start of May (9th) 2025, the society/club could build up enough points to win the main prize.
For each challenge the society/club uploads to social media, they must tag the Sustainability Team (@sustainabledmu) and add the hashtag with the number of the challenge eg. #LionsOfAction1 or #LionsOfAction2.
For the challenges that require an email response, they must email us at sustainability@dmu.ac.uk and put the society name and task number in the subject line.
Societies and Clubs are able to apply for the SeeD Grant for the SDGs to fund their activities. Find more information about the grant here.
We will be having monthly leader boards posted on our Instagram page so societies can keep track of where they are in the competition.
Prizes and Awards
The 2024-25 Grand Prize is £400, £200 for the second-place society/club, and £150 for the third-place society in funding for the society/club.
