Garden Competition
Send us pictures of your garden for the chance to win gardening vouchers
Whether you’ve created a colourful garden, a cosy balcony space, a thriving communal area or simply a few well-loved pots, we’d love to see what you’ve been growing this summer.
Our annual garden competition is back and we’re inviting GCH tenants and leaseholders to share photos of their outdoor spaces as they bloom through the season.
The competition is all about celebrating the care, creativity and pride that customers put into making their neighbourhoods brighter and greener places to live. Gardens of every shape and size are welcome – it’s not about having a perfect show garden.
We’d especially love to see:
- traditional gardens
- small gardens and front gardens
- balconies and container gardens
- communal spaces
- wildlife-friendly gardens
- creative use of pots and planters
How to enter
To enter the 2026 competition, please send us your garden photos by Friday 3 July 2026.
You can enter by:
- completing the form below
- messaging us through the GCH Facebook page
- emailing communications@gch.co.uk
Please include your name, address and a few photos of your garden or outdoor space. Gardens will be judged in early July and winners will receive gardening voucher prizes.
We can’t wait to see what you’ve been growing!
Get involved with our Bug Hotel challenge
This year, we’re also encouraging children and families to help local wildlife by creating their own insect hotel.
Insect hotels can provide shelter for insects and pollinators and can be made using simple recycled materials from around the home and garden.
Whether it’s a tiny insect corner or a full bug hotel masterpiece, we’d love to see your photos. We’ll be sharing some of our favourites during the competition.
Vote for your Favourite
We will post all entries on our Facebook page and the entry with the most reactions and comments by the middle of July will get the audience vote.
Get your friends and neighbours involved and let’s get Gloucester Gardening!
