About Social Farms & Gardens Community Management Awards

The Social Farms & Gardens Community Management Awards (CLAS Awards) began in 2019 and are run by SF&G to acknowledge the community management of green spaces.  

Green spaces include a range of vegetated land such as parks, community gardens, orchards, woodlands and hedges, informal green spaces, allotments and food growing sites, plus areas of water, including rivers, canals, lakes, ponds.  Community managed spaces like these are valuable for both people and nature. They are also run by volunteers who give up their spare time for their local environment and community. The Welsh Government funded Social Farms & Gardens Community Management Award is a stepping stone to achieving a Green Flag Community Award run by Keep Wales Tidy. 

To achieve this award, groups need to show that they are insured for their activities, have permission from the landowner to use the site, that they are involving the community in their decision making and working with partners such as the local authority.
