Launched in 2023, the annual MPIA shines a spotlight on the exceptional achievements of individuals and companies across the Midlands.

At the award ceremony on Friday 20th September Walton Homes was praised for its significant contribution to the region, most notably its outstanding customer care and pioneering initiatives, especially within sustainability.
The family run business has created a prototype cleaner, greener home to support UK targets to be net zero by 2050, and invested in a state-of-the-art PS1300 pallet shredder, lowering their carbon footprint by reducing waste and enabling the materials that would usually have gone to landfill or surplus, to be recycled and reused.
Celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, Walton Homes long-standing support of local community initiatives includes donating bags of wood chips to Sherratts Wood Care charity, a 20 acres farm in Staffordshire that provides inspirational activities for vulnerable children and adults.
Amy Summerton, Walton Homes Director said: “This is the first year we had entered the MPIA awards and so we were delighted to be chosen as a finalist, so to go on and win was a dream come true.
“To be recognized by our peers at such a prestigious event is a real honour.
