Awarding the 2020 Banksian Medal

Dear Members,
Since you were deprived of the opportunity to compete for most points in the Summer Show to win the Banksian Medal 2020. The RHS suggests that it should be awarded to someone who has gone ‘above and beyond’ to help the Church Crookham Garden Society survive or has helped other members with their gardening in these difficult times.
We are seeking nominations for the medal, so please name a candidate giving your reasons. Let me know by the end of September.
 
Liz Kirton (General Secretary)
 
The Banksian Medal is one of a number of medals awarded by the Royal Horticultural Society, and is named after the great scientist Sir Joseph Banks (1743-1820). Mr J.W. Banks, a gardener, was awarded this medal at the Chelsea Flower Show in 1928.
