Exmouth has at last won 1st place in the large towns category of the Exmouth in Bloom Competition for the South West Region. At last we beat off Taunton and for the first time have the name of the town on the Tesco cup.

The culmination of a year’s work in Exmouth was rewarded with the presentation of the South West in Bloom awards.

Congratulations to Pat Graham and the whole team who have worked really hard to achieve this, so many hours and hard work.

Exmouth in Bloom Competition for the South West Region

The ceremony was held at the Bristol Flower Show on which celebrated its 60th anniversary this year. South West in Bloom, the regional Britain in Bloom competition, has judged this year’s entrants to determine how each village, town and city has presented itself in floral displays, permanent horticultural landscaping and environmental issues.

Exmouth in Bloom Competition for the South West Region

The competition encourages all of the community, from private gardens to large large gardens, from individuals and small groups of volunteers to local authorities, to work together to improve their localities.

Exmouth in Bloom Competition for the South West Region

Each entrant is grouped with others of a similar population size and competes for a gold, silver-gilt, silver or bronze award, according to their merits when judged against the Britain in Bloom criteria. The best in each group is then awarded the trophy for that category.
