Yes, it’s that time of year again. Time to dust off your gardening tools and get back into the garden.

The categories for our competition are:

Best Individual Garden – a prize is up for grabs for the most colourful, well maintained garden.

Best garden in a small space – for creative tenants who make the best of a small space including balconies.

Best hanging basket – open to tenants who maintain hanging baskets outside their home.

If you are not a keen gardener yourself, you can nominate a neighbour who has a delightful front garden, balcony, hanging basket or container. 

Tenants who are interested in the gardening competition this year, please contact your Housing Officer who will then  take photographs of your garden. Shortlisted entries in each category will be posted on our website. North & East tenants and friends can  then begin voting for their favourite garden. Closing date for enteries is 1pm on the 4th of August 2017 and you will have until August 18th at 1pm to vote for your favourite garden.

           This year we are asking our younger tenants to get involved.

This year we would like to encourage our younger residents to get their hands dirty in the garden.

For our childrens competition, all we really want to see is some imagination and effort put into your pot, basket or garden patch! You can plant flowers , fruit, vegetables or maybe you have a fairy in your garden? When you think your garden is looking its best , ask your parents to take some photos and send them to us. Wonderful prizes up for grabs!!!!!
