Volunteers removed the plants from all the planters round the town early in November. They have been fantastic this year and thanks to Ian Chilvers for supplying them to us.

We are busy planning for next year and anyone wishing to join and help our cause is very welcome. Contact details below.
We are meeting next Saturday 6th December at 2pm at Roseway car park to plant up the 17 planters with wallflowers for the winter display. Volunteers just need to bring a pair of gloves and a trowel.

We want to hear from you if:
You are already looking after a public space and maintaining an area, this could be green space, flower display, public street or pocket park.
You are part of a volunteer group who would love to make a difference in the town and help clear up a spot or improve the look of an area with some beautiful plants.
You are working on a project to protect or preserve wildlife.
You have any other skill or interest that you feel would be great for the In Bloom project.
