Lambeth triumphs in London in Bloom awards

Under Labour’s leadership Lambeth is celebrating being named one of London's brightest and well kept boroughs, having been awarded a prestigious Silver Award in this year's London in Bloom competition.
London in Bloom is a campaign to create a lasting improvement to London's environment, organised by the Royal Horticultural Society. Open to all London boroughs, the awards promote the display of flowers as well as shrubs, trees and landscapes in places that can be seen and appreciated by the public, as well as clean streets and parks. And in a further triumph for Lambeth, Brockwell Park Community Greenhouses came second in the Community Garden category.

Labour Cllr Lib Peck, Cabinet member for environment and culture on Lambeth Council, said:
"This is wonderful news for Lambeth, and I’m delighted that the hard work that staff, residents, businesses and community groups put in all year round to create a more attractive borough has been recognised.
"The council is determined to create a better environment for all those who live and work here, and it is fantastic to get this recognition."
