Green-fingered tenants and schools across Wolverhampton can win £75 in this year’s garden competition, which officially opened on 27 May 2026. Run by Wolverhampton Homes, the annual contest invites tenants, leaseholders, and local schools to submit photos of their outdoor spaces before 17 July 2026, with judging taking place throughout July.
Seven categories are up for grabs: best community garden, best communal garden, best hanging basket, best patio garden, best vegetable garden, best school garden, and best natural or wildlife garden. First-place winners in each will receive £75, with extra prizes for second and third place. Entrants must provide five photos, including one showing themselves in the garden, using the Wolverhampton Homes website entry form.
The competition is part of a long-running effort to boost community pride and celebrate the hard work residents put into transforming their gardens. Any photos submitted may be used later to promote the competition and its winners. Participants without internet access can get help by phoning Trisha Gallardo on 07970 779098.
