Britain in Bloom is one
of the most effective, and longest running environmental competitions in the
United Kingdom and each year it grows in size and importance and involves more
people, groups and organisations within the community. The show of flowers in
otherwise drab grey streets, the landscaping of derelict and marginal land, the
enhancement of our towns and pride in our villages is the aim and indeed the
success of the competition. None of this could be
achieved without the enthusiasm of the whole community working together to
improve their local environment and the recognition that involvement in Small and large villages,
towns and cities in the region are judged for floral displays both in Spring
and Summer. Minor awards are also
made for schools, conservation projects, business parks, hospitals, parks etc.
The competition contributes to the regeneration of our towns and cities and
helps to provide an attractive environment for both visitors and the local
community. To be included on the distribution
list for entry information please contact the Regional Secretary for
