ENDS Power List 2026: 17 CEnv and REnvP Registrants

A total of 17 SocEnv registrants – Chartered Environmentalists and Registered Environmental Practitioners – have been recognised for their leadership and influence in their environmental work.

The annual ENDS Power List celebrates the work of 100 impactful environmental professionals and leaders across sectors and disciplines – including lawyers, consultants, influencers, rising stars under 35, and more. If honest, we expect to see some SocEnv registrants included, and those that are, deserve huge congratulations.

In the words of ENDS themselves:

Who are the UK’s most impactful environmental professionals?

Today we would like to congratulate all those included in the 2026 ENDS Power List for their outstanding work to champion, protect and enhance the environment we depend upon. But naturally, our focus is on our registrants. Those included are:
