Beat the Drought - Win £50 and a Trophy

 In the light of the current hosepipe ban which was announced by all major water companies in the South East as from beginning of April and to encourage all gardeners to become more resourceful and economic in their use of water generally Herne Bay in Bloom are launching a competition to find the most innovative and creative ways of beating the drought. This should include the use of “Grey Water”, stored water and/or methods of retaining or conserving water.

The means of getting water to your displays, gardens or plants should be illustrated or described in your own words stating why your idea is so creative and you can also provide images of any systems that you are already using so we can assess the originality of your entry.

We are trying to encourage people to really think “outside the box” and to be as imaginative possible and a prize of £50 awaits the person who it is judged has the most innovative ideas.

A selection of the best ideas that are sent to us will be published on our website in due course,

All entries can either be sent by email to herne_bayinbloom@live.co.uk or by post to The Secretary Herne Bay In Bloom 97 Central Parade Herne Bay CT6 5JJ Closing date will be Monday 25^th June 2012.
