Look who's in the 2011 list of winners!*
We would like to thank all BALI Members who submitted entries into the 2011 BALI National Landscape Awards in association with Horticulture Week, and the adjudication panel for their commitment, expertise and hard work.
“Despite the difficulties of such a harsh winter and the tough economic climate, BALI contractors across the broad spectrum of our industry have demonstrated their ability to provide a high quality service, stunning garden and landscape maintenance and design and build schemes across the UK. Overall entry numbers were up on last year and the quality of entries into our Design Excellence and International categories was outstanding. This year marks the 35th BALI National Landscape Awards and the panel of experienced adjudicators were hugely
impressed by the hard work and level of enthusiasm shown by our BALI contractors.
On behalf of the adjudication panel, I offer my congratulations to all of the winning entries and look forward to the Principal and Special Awards being announced at the Awards ceremony on 2nd December.”
Greg Allen, Chair of the Adjudication Panel
*Please note: If a category has one award winner, this does not guarantee it will receive a Principal Award.

Although of a very high standard, all shortlisted entries in this category were judged to fall short of the exacting benchmark of all round excellence demanded by winners of a BALI Award. The judging panel unanimously agreed that, to ensure a BALI Award remains the highest accolade achievable by those working in the landscape industry, this category would stand without any contractor receiving an award in 2011.
