Soha runs a number of competitions, open to all members of the Tenants' Reward Scheme. Every year 4 competitions are repeated. These are:
Good Neighbour Competition
Would you like to say "thank you" to a good neighbour? Do you have someone living near you who deserves recognition and thanks for all their good work? Every year, we give you the chance to say "thank you" to a good neighbour. Once a year, Hometalk will invite Soha tenants to nominate someone living near them for the chance to win a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of champagne.
Colouring Competition
Our colouring competition is open to 3 age categories: 5 and under, 6 - 8 years, and 9 - 12 years.
Garden Competition
To reward tenants who put time and effort into making their gardens beautiful, as well as to encourage new gardeners, we run an annual garden competition. There are prizes for the winners of 4 categories: best individual garden, best shared sheltered scheme garden, best balcony / window box / stand alone pots, and most improved garden. There is also a special prize for one garden which makes an outstanding contribution to the neighbourhood.
The garden competition opens for registration in Spring and is advertised in Hometalk. Judging takes place in the Summer.
Sunflower Competition
Not to forget our younger residents, the sunflower competition is open to 3 age categories: under 6 years, 6 - 9 years, and 10 - 12 years. The competition runs alongside the garden competition.
