Can you help to make make Marlborough ‘bloomin’ marvellous in time for the judges of South West in Bloom on Thursday July 29 ? The judges are arriving at 10am on that day and will be guided around a route, specifically chosen to take in the highlights of the town. Starting and finishing at the Town Hall, the route will zig zag down the High Street, meander through Priory Gardens, into and along Coopers Meadow, through The Parade, finishing up in Wye House Gardens before heading back to town.
Marlborough Town Council is leading this year’s entry into the RHS South West in Bloom Competition, working with some of the town’s community groups, shops, pubs, businesses and local volunteers to ensure Marlborough is looking its best for the judges and our residents and visitors alike.
Assistant Town Clerk, Clare Harris said, “If you live or work on the route and would like to ‘do your bit’, it really would help us enormously. You could simply weed and sweep up in front of your home, shop or business or even put out a colourful planter or hanging basket.
We will be planning some ‘tidy up the town’ days in the lead up to the competition, so, if you have a passion for the outdoors or just want to help us to make Marlborough look ‘blooming amazing’. Please contact me on charris@marlborough-tc.gov.uk or on 01672 512487. Thank you.”
