Q3 Grounds help Elvetham Heath secure GOLD in the Parish in Bloom Awards
Elvetham Heath Parish Council has triumphed with a Gold Award in the annual South and Southeast in Bloom, Parishes in Bloom, competition. Q3’s Lotus Landscapes team has maintained the public spaces at Elvetham Heath for a number of years, and we are delighted that everyone’s hard work and dedication is reflected in this accolade.
The examiners visited Elvetham Heath in July of this year and were impressed by what they saw, scoring Elvetham Heath Parish Council an impressive 87 out of 100 and making it one of only two parishes to achieve gold status this year.
Community engagement played an important part, and the judges noted the clear pride that residents took in their front gardens which were well maintained with pretty features such as hanging baskets. They also remarked on the improvements undertaken to the Turner’s Way Recreation Area, the beautiful floral displays around The Key, and the expansion of the community orchard.
The Parish Council acknowledged the contribution of the grounds-maintenance team from Q3s, who have worked so hard on the vast amount of greenery around Elvetham Heath.
Zoe Miles, Operations Director, said, “It’s great working with Elvetham Heath Parish Council. We share a passion for creating a welcoming, outdoor environment which the community can enjoy, and this has been recognised with this award.”
