Following the successful visit to Leamington from the Heart of England in Bloom judges at the beginning of July, the ‘in Bloom’ spies are out on the Leamington streets looking for the most attractive frontages and gardens of pubs, restaurants, shops and offices.

Certificates will be awarded to the gold, silver and bronze winners along with an invitation to a reception with the town mayor in October. There is plenty of time to spruce up your business as the competition closes on September 30.

Leamington Mayor Cllr Judith Clarke said: “Leamington is already blessed with an abundance of green spaces - flowers and plants make our town more beautiful. They also do a vital and wonderful job of encouraging wildlife, including pollinators like bugs and bees. We are keen to have as many ‘blooming’ businesses as possible so that the results can be enjoyed by all in the town - residents, workers and visitors."
