All of these winners will then join the English regional winners in an all-UK final.

The panel is chaired by Countryside Alliance Chief Executive Simon Hart.

Once the all-UK judging panel has made its choices, all eyes are on the Grand Final at the House of Lords in London to see who has taken the titles. The Grand Final will take place in the Cholmondeley Room on the terrace at the House of Lords on 19th March 2009.
