FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Britain’s Most Attractive Neighbourhoods Highlighted in National Competition

March 4th, 2008

As numerous studies have noted, an attractive neighbourhood environment resulting from the inclusion of plants and landscaping has been linked to an improvement in a number of social and economic factors, including property values, crime reduction and pollution interception, as well as more general benefits linked to business and consumer behaviour.

Competitions such as ‘Britain in Bloom’ encourage communities to work together to improve their environment and help residents to interact with their neighbours on a regular basis. The extensive media coverage it receives also helps to highlight the good practice of public sector organisations in helping to transform their local areas. The public sector can take the lead in this process through the use of decorative installations in their premises and in public areas.

Village Gardens, a professional supplier of installations for plants and flowers to councils and public sector organisations in the UK, provides a range of options to clients to suit their particular circumstances. These include the ability to buy or lease installations, the servicing of installations, consultation over the concept of the installation and its suitability for summer and winter seasons, ready-to-install plants and displays and the availability of insurance against damage and vandalism.

Because the installations are ready-grown, their impact can be seen immediately. Village Gardens has considerable experience working with public sector organisations and was the supplier to the London Borough of Lambeth during the high-profile UK leg of the Tour de France. Installations are suitable in a wide range of applications and locations, including town halls, exhibitions and for street displays and can be supplied across the UK.

Further information is available from the firm by calling 0785 - 49 31 423, by emailing info@village-gardens.co.uk, or at their website, www.village-gardens.co.uk.
