With regard to your coverage of the Schools Young Gardeners Competition, (“Pupils harvest a victory", Times Series, September 29) When “Easy Barnet” Council decided not to fund Barnet in Bloom this year, Hendon Horticultural Society, which donated the original Schools Cup, decided to go ahead and run this section itself with support from Finchley Nurseries.
The society felt strongly the children should continue to be encouraged in their environmental growing projects and wanted to support young gardeners of the future. Jill Banerjee
Secretary of Hendon Horticultural Society
