Day 2 at the North West in Bloom awards, today was the In Bloom awards. These are generally collaborative efforts between In Bloom groups, Friends of groups and local councils.

Heywoods awards are

• Heywood Town - Large Town Category - Gold

Our partners at Heywood Distribution Park also received a Gold Award in the Large Industrial Park category - well done to the team there who work tirelessly to keep the park looking fantastic.

Once again thank you to all of our HIB volunteers we couldn’t do it without you, also a big thank you to the Friends groups of both Hopwood and Queens Park and our thanks also to Rochdale Borough Council for the efforts you put in to make our town and parks as good as they are.

To round the day of we had a chat to Jason Williams aka Cloud Gardener UK and he has agreed to visit us to give us some advice on ideas we have for next year.

Just some of the fantastic volunteers and partners who make up Heywood In Bloom, with the Mayor of Rochdale.
