A Hersham garden centre has picked up the top gong at the annual Garden Centre Association awards.

Squire’s, in Burwood Road, was named best garden centre in the south Thames region and was also recognised in the best gift department, best plant area and best restaurant categories.

Sarah Squire, deputy chairman of Squire’s Garden Centres, said: "This award is fantastic not only for the Squire's group but it is great recognition for our wonderful team at Hersham."

The awards come as Squire’s celebrates the 30th anniversary of its Hersham centre with a family garden party.

The party takes place on Saturday, September 6, from 10am to 4pm.
