Garden centre on a winning streak, as it is named Garden Centre of Excellence for 11th year running and is now judged to be one of the most environmentally aware garden centres in the UK.
"Here at Grosvenor we aim to nurture an interest in gardening whilst at the same time promoting the benefits of plants in our everyday lives," said Grosvenor's Julie Gregory.

"The impact plants can have on our wellbeing and the environment is vast but, over the last 12 months in particular, we have focused on redeveloping and rejuvenating the impact that the grow your own experience has had on our visitors - a practice which is continuing to grow and reap rewards on the green space around us."

The Chester-based garden centre has its own 'Green Grosvenor' team, with members from every area encouraged to devise initiatives to move the Colour Your Life initiative forward. The centre also works the local community to improve their effect on the environment and reduce their carbon footprint. Recent eco initiatives within the community have included donating vouchers to the Community Buildings in Bloom competition.

Grosvenor md Iain Wylie said: "Having won the Colour Your Life Green Community Award (previously known as the Green City Town & Country Award) each year since its inception three years ago, we are delighted to have once again retained such a prestigious environmental award to underpin our values and efforts here at Grosvenor."
