|
Hi – hope this is okay but I thought keen gardeners might be interested in a competition that’s been launched by a charity called United Response at http://www.unitedresponse.org.uk/appeal
They’re hunting for the most “imaginative gardens” around the country – there will be ten regional winners of £50 gardening vouchers each, with an overall prize of £100 plus priceless consultancy from Chelsea Flower Show gold medallist Paul Cooper.
“Imaginative gardens could simply mean using creativity to turn a small space into a floral oasis. Or it could mean a quirky theme, like turning a shed into a Roman theatre or populating your garden with a gnome army,” the appeal says.
The competition is trying to raise awareness of sensory gardens for people with learning disabilities , as well as raise funds.
The campaign hopes to create ten gardens, located in Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Gwent, Bristol, Wiltshire, York, Ripon, Tyne and Wear, Merseyside and Nottinghamshire.
