BLOOM IS BACK IN ROYAL TUNBRIDGE WELLS
Tunbridge Wells Borough Council and the Royal Tunbridge Wells Town Forum, the partnership between residents’ representatives and ward councilors, revived the once popular competition in 2010.
And again in 2011, the organisers wish to bring back once more the sparkle to Royal Tunbridge Wells through a number of methods e.g. cleaning of roundabouts, replanting containers, more street flower baskets and barrier troughs and even introducing edible landscaping on suitable spots.
Together with the
"Love Where We Live"
initiative it also aims to achieve
a litter free, cleaner and greener town.
We will work together with all communities and schools and there will be competitions for:
- basket
- planter/tub/container
- front patio/balcony
- front garden
- cafe/pub/club
- shop front
- street
Be part of Royal Tunbridge Wells in Bloom — there will be many benefits to your area:
- Increase community and civic pride
- Long term improvement in local environments
- A boost to Royal Tunbridge Wells' economy
- Regeneration of rundown areas
- Stimulation of voluntary work and co-operation between communities
- A means to address conservation, heritage and sustainability
