Thamesmead in Bloom Competition Launch

Gallions Housing Association, supported by Tilfen Land, has launched the fifth annual Thamesmead in bloom competition.

Building on last year's success, there will be five categories to enter: best front garden, best back garden, best balcony or window box, best school garden and best shared or business garden, so residents and schools now have even more chances of scooping top prizes worth £50 for each category.

If you want to enter, you'll have to be quick. Closing date for entries is Friday 5 June, with judging expected to run until Friday 17 July 2009.
