Has your Community Spaces garden or allotment been made possible by the hard work and dedication of one individual or a small group of people?
Well, you could recognise their commitment by nominating them for the ‘Gardening Against the Odds Award.’ The competition is being run by the Daily Telegraph in association with the Conservation Foundation and Green & Blacks, and is dedicated to the memory of the Sunday Telegraph writer, Elspeth Thompson, who sadly passed away earlier this year.
The entries can be on behalf of individual gardeners or small communities who have overcome obstacles such as creating a garden in an unlikely or hospitable corner or gardening in the face of physical or mental health problems such as depression or grief.
You can enter yourself, or nominate a friend by downloading an application form at www.telegraph.co.uk/gardeningawards.
A selection of the best entries will be posted on the Telegraph gardening website. For more information about the award and how you can enter, visit: www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening
