Is your community the friendliest in the UK?
| |
To celebrate HM The King’s Coronation, we’re looking for communities going above and beyond to support those around them. Maybe you hold an annual Big Lunch, regular meet-ups, or pull together to help each other out and look after your local area.
From cul-de-sacs to blocks of flats, villages to cities, if your community deserves a great big ‘thank you’, we want to hear from you!
The Eden Project team will work with the winning community to install a pollinator and people friendly garden. The prize will also include a Coronation Big Lunch hamper and £2,500 to support your next community project. Plus, three runners up will also receive a hamper (including a £100 Iceland voucher) and £1,000 towards a community project.
Sound good? To enter, all you need to do is tell us a little about your community and why you deserve to be crowned! The competition runs from 1-30 March and winners will be announced in April.
