Following the news
earlier this year that the organisation of the BALI National Landscape Awards
was being brought back ‘in house’ in 2018, BALI has announced the highest
number of entries for nine years.
This reinforces the
BALI Awards’ position as the premier landscape awards in Europe.
BALI members have
given the Association’s move to take back full control of the Awards the thumbs
up, with record numbers of Registered Contractors and Designers submitting
their best design, construction and maintenance schemes, Registered Affiliate
(supplier) members entering the BALI Affiliate Exceptional Service Award, and a
range of member companies submitting their schemes and their companies for the
International and Employer Excellence Awards.
This year’s BALI
Awards host has also been announced; popular BBC 1 Breakfast anchor and sports
journalist Dan Walker will be entertaining BALI members and industry guests and
presenting members with their prestigious awards during the ceremony at Grosvenor
House, Park Lane, London, on Friday 7 December 2018.
Tickets are now
available and can be booked via the BALI Awards website at baliawards.co.uk. Last year’s sell-out event
had a waiting list and tickets for this year’s event are expected to be snapped
up quickly.
Judges on the BALI
Awards adjudication panel, chaired by Greg Allen, are currently visiting the
entries and the list of National Award winners will be announced, following
their final deliberations, in early September. The Principal, Special and Grand
Awards, selected from amongst the National Award winners, will be announced at
the ceremony on 7 December.
