GTN’s Greatest Awards ON TOUR for 2015 made their third appearance of the year at the GIMA’s last week to present The Greatest Garden Re-Leaf Day Retail Fundraising Awards.
In advance of the main event the GIMA Council very kindly allowed GTN to present a Gold Award to Andy Bunker of Altons, Silver to Katie Eckley of The Old Railway Line and Bronze Awards to Bob Hewitt of Klondyke Garden Centres and Conna Powells from Haskins.
The finalists for the award, who all raised over £1,000 for Greenfingers on Garden Re-Leaf Day 2015 were:
- Alton Garden Centre
- Aylett Nurseries
- Haskins Garden Centres
- Hillview Garden Centres
- Klondyke Garden Centres
- Longacres Nursery
- Perrywood Garden Centre
- Simpsons Garden Centre
- St Peters Garden Centre
- The Old Railway Line Garden Centre
Gold Award winner Andy Bunker, who created the quiz that was used in garden centres across the company said “next year’s quiz will be better than ever, with a general knowledge option as well as a gardening quiz. That way more garden centres should be able to take part and help push the fundraising for Garden Re-Leaf day 2016 past the £100,000 mark.”
The next stage of The Greatest Awards ON TOUR 2015 is The Greatest Outdoor Leisure Sales Awards which will be presented at spoag+gafa at the end of August, with the final Greatest Awards ON TOUR at HTA Futures Conference Dinner on September 30th.
