Growing Beardmore Wins Community Environmental Award
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Growing Beardmore on winning the Community Environmental Award at the TPAS Scotland’s National Good Practice Awards on 20 June 2025; understands that the awards celebrate outstanding achievements in tenant participation by individual tenants, tenant groups and social landlords; further understands that the community environmental award recognises successful engagement with tenants or residents in environmentally friendly initiatives; acknowledges that Growing Beardmore was confirmed the winner at the Golden Jubilee Hotel, Clydebank, as part of a three-day annual conference; notes that Growing Beardmore was established in 2016, when founder Rose Dorman approached Link Housing to ask for a small piece of land to grow her own vegetables; further notes that it has since grown into a well-established group with a productive community garden that gives back to the local area; commends the group for this well-deserved achievement, and thanks it for the work it does to protect and enhance the local environment.
