4. The Digital Asset: Where a Digital Asset of the Award is available, the RHS will provide an appropriate Digital Asset to the Award Winner and Finalists.  An Award Winner and Finalist may only use the Digital Asset provided to it by the RHS and must not create its own physical, photographic or digital image of the Award, or anything confusingly similar, or alter any Digital Asset provided by the RHS.   
5. The Award Statement for the Award Winner:  If an Award Winner wishes to refer to winning an Award, it must use the Award Statement, which specifies the year of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in which the Award was awarded.  For example:  RHS Chelsea Sustainable Business of the Year Winner [2025].

An Award Winner and Finalist may not refer to their products or services as award-winning.

10. RHS Trade Marks:  Use of the RHS’ names, logos or trade marks other than as set out in these Terms of Use is strictly prohibited.  
11. Conduct:  An Award Winner and Finalist must not do anything that, in RHS’s reasonable opinion: (a) does not align with the RHS’s current aims, strategy or policies; or (b) may bring the RHS, the Award or the RHS Show into disrepute, or damage their reputation or goodwill.  
12. Termination of Use:  On written notice, the RHS may terminate the rights of an Award Winner and Finalist under these Terms of Use if the RHS reasonably considers that they have not complied with these Terms of Use, and on receipt of the notice they must immediately cease their use of the Digital Asset and Award Statement, as applicable.
