In a record-breaking year Bluewater Shopping Centre is raising its prestigious Green Flag Award
Landsec, Incentive FM and landscaping group Gavin Jones are celebrating after receiving a Green Flag Award for Bluewater Shopping Centre, one of 2208 UK winners.
The award is the international quality mark for parks and green spaces. After two years that have seen our parks and green spaces play a vital role for people through lockdowns as a place to relax, exercise and meet friends and family safely, the news that Bluewater Shopping Centre has achieved the Green Flag Award is testament to the hard work and dedication of the team that make the green space a great space that everyone can enjoy.
James Waugh, Centre Director at Bluewater, said “We are delighted to receive our Green Flag Award here at Bluewater. Our 50 acres of stunning parkland are maintained by a fantastic team, and we really take pride in maintaining our local environment. The Awards set the benchmark standard for the management of green spaces in the UK, so this is a tremendous accolade to receive.”
Commenting on the news that Bluewater Shopping Centre has met the Green Flag Award standard, Keep Britain Tidy’s Accreditation Manager Paul Todd said: “I would like to congratulate everyone involved in making Bluewater worthy of a Green Flag Award.
“Bluewater is a vital green space for the community in Greenhithe. This award is testament to all the hard work of staff who do so much to ensure that it maintains the high standards demanded by the Green Flag Award.”
The Green Flag Award scheme, managed by environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy under licence from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, recognises and rewards well-managed parks and green spaces, setting the benchmark standard for the management of green spaces across the United Kingdom and around the world.
