Westbury In Bloom

Westbury in Bloom

Our aim is to encourage as many people as possible in the community to help Westbury be an attractive and welcoming place for all those who live, work and visit here.

	Bristol in Bloom For a number of years, Bristol ran a "Bristol in Bloom" competition, and Westbury was a regular winner of the Gold Medal for the "Best Shopping Area". Alas, the competition is no more, but the annual Flower Fund Collection enables us to continue to provide the Village with its floral displays including hanging baskets and the large tubs around the War Memorial.
	Thank You A very big Thank You to all who contributed to the flowers in Westbury this year. Sponsorship and other donations from many individuals and businesses in Westbury, and your generosity has enabled us to have the full complement of hanging baskets from the lamp posts and all the tubs and troughs throughout the village. This level of response not only shows how much you enjoy the flowers and how much you care about the environment you live in but it really makes all the hard work by the Westbury in Bloom Team worth it. Thanks too to all the volunteers who have worked so hard in helping to clear the weeds, litter, graffiti and plant bulbs and flowers in Canford Park and also to all those who have delivered the gift aid envelopes throughout the village. WELL DONE EVERYONE!
	Where are the Flowers Grown? Many people in Westbury are now aware of the great efforts made by WIB and the village community to enhance Westbury Village and Stoke Lane - and know that it is not 'just provided by the council'! We are very grateful to Rod Pooley and his team at Blaise Nursery for growing the flowers for the planters and hanging baskets and their great support. This support all helps towards making a lovely display of flowers throughout the year in Westbury.
