Before filling out our simple registration form

  • There are currently two initiatives within our Network - Beautiful Scotland and It's Your Neighbourhood. To help you choose which is the best fit for your group, please read this document.
  • If you're selecting Beautiful Scotland, please read this document which outlines the different options and the categories. You'll also need to obtain the electoral roll figure for your community - this document outlines how to do this.
  • All groups taking part should focus on the three pillars of horticulture/gardening achievement, environmental responsibility, and community participation.
  • If you're a school or a nursery, please read the relevant information at the bottom of this page.

If you need help, please email cnfcn@keepscotlandbeautiful.org and we'd be happy to talk you through the process. Once you've filled in the form, we'll be in touch with details about the FREE support, resources and national recognition available to your group this year. 

Please note, we will share your contact details with:
• The Keep Scotland Beautiful volunteer assigned to visit your group, and
• The Royal Horticultural Society so that they can provide you with additional support and resources including a regular newsletter.

Please ensure you read our Beautiful Scotland and It's Your Neighbourhood specific Privacy Notice, as well as our general Keep Scotland Beautiful Privacy Notice.
