Sign up to this National awards scheme run by Beautiful Scotland.
It’s a non-competitive initiative designed to provide support and recognition to individuals and community groups across Scotland.
Awards are given to projects which have enhanced the appearance of neighbourhoods through environmental improvements and community support. Your local project can help to create new attitudes and stimulate all ages to take a real pride in their environment.
How to get started You may already be doing something that can qualify for the Neighbourhood Awards or have a specific project in mind. It can be an individual or a group project, as long as it contributes to improving the appearance of your local environment
The "It's Your Neighbourhood" campaign is an ideal opportunity for volunteer-led community groups which are interested in cleaning up and greening up their local area, whether that is the street where they live, a derelict space on their estate or the grounds around the local community centre.
To enter into the "It’s your Neighbourhood awards" call us (the Litter Strategy Team) and we will come and talk to you. Alternatively you may sign up online at beautifulscotland.org|, call them on 01786 477 171 or email beautifulscotland@ksbscotland.org.uk|
All applicants receive a certificate of achievement and are invited to attend an annual seminar in November. This is an opportunity to meet other groups from across Scotland and to talk to the judges. Talks and workshops provide the chance to learn something new!
