🌸🌿 WAREHAM IS GROWING FOR GOLD! 🌿🌸

Good luck to the wonderful Wareham Community Growers, who are once again finalists in the prestigious RHS Britain in Bloom competition! 🏆🌺

Since forming in 2021, this fantastic volunteer group has gone from strength to strength — achieving gold and silver awards 👏🌟But it’s about so much more than beautiful flowers. The Growers work tirelessly with Wareham Town Council, local volunteers, community groups, residents and businesses to make Wareham a greener, cleaner and more welcoming place for everyone. 🌱💚

From the colourful displays along North Street and South Street, to planting, maintaining community gardens and supporting environmental projects, their hard work makes a real difference to our town.
