Bermondsey in Bloom 2014: call for entries
Photographs of some of the 2013 entries were displayed last autumn at a community council meeting

The Salmon Youth Centre and Cllr Eliza Mann have teamed up to organise another Bermondsey in Bloom competition.

Over the next few months, young people from Salmon Youth Centre will take to the streets of Bermondsey with a camera and a sharp eye for good looking gardens.

There will be prizes and certificates for the top three entrants (chosen by independent judges) in each of the following categories:

• Balconies and window boxes
• Pubs and businesses
• School gardens
• Community gardens
• Edible gardens and allotments
• Estates gardens
• Front gardens
• Wildlife gardens

The competition is open to all residents and organisations in Grange ward, Riverside ward and South Bermondsey ward.

The entry form is available on the Salmon website – or you can drop in to the youth centre in Old Jamaica Road and pick up a paper copy from reception.

The closing date is Friday 22 August.

Winners will be announced at the September meeting of Bermondsey & Rotherhithe Community Council.
