Barn Hill Conservation Group are celebrating a double award from London in Bloom.
The Roe Green Walled Garden won Gold in the small Conservation Area category.
The garden is one of the gems of Brent, lovingly tended by volunteers, and replete with vegetables and flowers and fascinating installations dedicated to giving a home to wildlife.
You can visit on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays between 10.30am and 2.30pm.
The second award, also a Gold, went to Fryent Country Park and was the overall winner in the Best Country Park Category.
The Conservation Group worked with Brent Council and Barn Hill Residents Association to clear rubbish and the remains of camps from the 250 acre park deposited about 2 years ago.
There is now a dedicated team of residents who collect litter whilst working in the park and leave it a collection points for the Council to collect.
The Conservation Group work in the park every Sunday not only clearing litter and flytips but undertaking conservation work including keeping footpaths clear, carrying out new planting and surveying the park's wildlife.
