Creative Borders

There are no restrictions on style or theme, allowing participants to fully express their vision and interpretation of garden design. The competition provides an exceptional opportunity to raise awareness of your work and engage directly with tens of thousands of visitors over the four-day event.
All successful applicants will receive:
- A grant of £200 to support project materials
- A dedicated raised timber bed, fully prepared and filled with topsoil for your design
- Direct engagement with over 40,000 visitors, including potential clients
- The chance to win the prestigious ‘Top Border’ award, with a £500 prize
This competition is an accessible and inspiring platform for designers, plantspeople, and contractors from across the North of England to showcase their creativity.
