BRACKNELL FLOWERS JUDGING DATE ANNOUNCED

18/07/08

A panel of judges from the Royal Horticultural Society will visit Bracknell on Thursday, July 17 2008 to judge the town’s Britain in Bloom entry.

They will be taken on a tour of the Borough in a sunflower oil fuelled bus, when they will be able to view the hordes of fabulous floral displays across Bracknell.

The aim of Bracknell Flowers is to regenerate the local environment through the imaginative planting of trees, shrubs, flowers and landscaping.

Bracknell Flowers is part of an on-going commitment by Bracknell Forest Council, Bracknell Town Council and Bracknell Regeneration Partnership, which focuses on keeping the borough bright, vibrant and beautiful.

Helen Barnett, marketing manager for Bracknell Regeneration Partnership comments: “It has been a real pleasure to work with the excellent team on what has hopefully been another successful Bracknell Flowers campaign. A huge thank you to everyone, including our sponsors, for all the hard work that has gone into making the Borough and town centre environments so fabulous again this year.”

Steve McKenna, Bracknell Forest Borough Council’s landscape manager adds: “We are really proud of our blooms and are impressed with the efforts local people have gone to again this year. The borough is looking great and I’m confident the judges will be impressed with the floral displays they will see on their tour around Bracknell. Fingers crossed the sun will be shining!”
