Entrants should supply the judges with as much relevant information as they possibly can about the gardens or landscapes entered in the New Homes Garden Awards. They will require garden or landscape design plans, site plans, before and after images (where required), the brief, budget, plant lists, photographs or digital images (jpeg pc format), explanation of brief, designer and/or constructor details, information on biodiversity and sustainability issues and solutions, environmental impact, any specialist work carried out and any particular points of merit and interest. The judges will also require information as to why you consider the entry or entries worthy of an award.

Please remember that it is not necessarily the quantity of material the judges see that is important but the quality. It should be a top quality presentation, properly packaged, succinct but comprehensive, clear, understandable and complete, easily readable and to the point. It is also worth reminding you that the judges are not judging the property only the relationship it has with the garden or landscape entered.

The decision of the judges in any matter relating to the awards will be final and no correspondence will be entered into concerning their decisions save for any comments that may be available in the judge's comments.

If you require any additional information before submitting part 2 of your entry please contact us on 020 8657 9987 or email info@newhomesgardenawards.co.uk
