The Fountain Society is offering prize money totalling £2,250 for the best new fountain
or water feature in the UK.

Sponsored by the Marsh Christian Trust, the 2009 Marsh/Fountain Society Award is
open to all organisations, including charities and voluntary organisations. The 
Society’s Chairman Peter Brown wrote to Third Sector magazine this week saying “
we would like to locate fountains commissioned by the third sector.”

Eligible fountains can be large or small, traditional or modern, complex or simple.
The judges will be looking in particular for “exciting and stimulating use of water”.
They must have been completed in the four years ending in December 2008 and must
be accessible for public enjoyment.
