CPRE Northern Lincolnshire Environment Awards
For a number of years CPRE Northern Lincolnshire has recognised and celebrated individuals, groups or organisations that have made a significant contribution to improving the local environment, through our Annual Environment Awards.
In 2019 there were three winners of the CPRE Environment Award, Amcotts, Broughton, and Low Burnham. They all received their awards and special plaque at the annual presentation evening, held in Messingham on 2 October.
Low Burnham and Broughton won their awards for their effort in involving the community in improving their environment. The ‘Burnham Bloomers’ group was set up for community planting throughout the village and did a brilliant job, with the village being award the top prize in the Best Kept Village competition, small village category.
In Amcotts, the Butterfly Project which also won an award, brought generations of villagers together with an Easter Parade and a lovely butterfly garden in the grounds of the church. There was also a butterfly cascade, a butterfly bench and decorated pebbles in the churchyard
