Double nomination for Helston Florist

A blossoming florist in Helston is celebrating after being nominated as a finalist for two national awards.

The Sweet Pea Floral Studio at Meneage Street has been shortlisted for 'Best Florist Website' and 'Retail Florist of the Year' at the British Florist Association Industry Awards.

The news is a double celebration after the shop was accepted earlier this year into the Good Florist Guide, regarded by many as the gold standard of the floristry industry.

Owner Lin Turner said: "To say we are thrilled is an understatement having reached the final 22 from florists around the country. This is a wonderful opportunity, not only for us, but also for promoting this lovely town of ours."

Winners will be determined by public vote. Visit britishfloristassociation.org, Facebook or www.sweetpeahelston.com to vote for Sweet Pea Floral Studio and for more information.
