2nd Prize Best in Holborn
Somerton House Residents Association Chair and Secretary Simon & John attended the Camden in Bloom awards ceremony in Camden Town Hall this evening to collect an unexpected award for our new planted garden area.
In a Council chamber jammed packed with gardening folk, we were awarded a Cup for 2nd best council garden in Holborn and £25 for John to spend at the Camden Garden Centre, not bad for our first entry!
Somerton House residents are very pleased, and happy with how our new green space is settling in, and that the judges were kind enough to award us a prize.
