The 3rd Planting Places awards – recognising greenspaces that are making fantastic contributions
to the sustainability of their communities – is open for applications until 5pm 1 February 2010.
The awards, coordinated by SSW, are open to applications from any public greenspace in the South West of England. This includes everything from parks, community gardens and allotments to green routes (ie cycle paths), play spaces and even cemeteries and rooftops. The greenspace can be any size. It can be privately funded, community, conservation group, NHS Trust or council land, but it MUST be free and accessible to the public, and for public use and enjoyment.
Applications can be submitted by a local community group, local authority, NGO, NHS Trust, private organisation or individual. Completed applications can be returned to lynn.gibbons@sustainabilitysouthwest.org.uk.
