Many thanks to everyone
Many thanks to everyone who supported our RHS NWIB Campaigns this year. The NWIB Regional Organisers, NWIB judges and assessors who visited all the amazing Bloom and Community Gardening Groups in the warmest summer temperatures we have ever had, sometimes too warm for the plants as well as everyone involved. Thank you to the many local coordinators who helped coordinate visits, and thank you particularly to all the Bloom and Community volunteers who worked so hard this year. Also thanks to the many partners from Local Councils, Business groups, Schools, and Commercial organisations who support their Bloom Groups. We really do have an amazing North West in Bloom region.
Our Award Ceremonies took place at the end of October when all the results were announced. The results will be posted on the website and any groups who did not attend the Awards will receive their certificates in due course. Reports will hopefully be sent out during November and December, prior to Christmas. A selection of photographs from this year's entrants can be viewed via the Gallery option. Photographs from the Award Ceremonies will be uploaded to the Gallery shortly.
Kind regards - Bernard and everyone at RHS NWIB

An Introduction to North West in Bloom
North West in Bloom is the regional organisation that administers the RHS Britain in Bloom competition in Lancashire, Cheshire, Greater Manchester and Merseyside, and is one of the 18 regions and nations that comprise Britain in Bloom. It is made possible through support from the RHS and several local and national Sponsors.
Britain in Bloom is one of the most effective, and longest running environmental competitions in the United Kingdom and each year it grows in size and importance and involves more people, groups and organisations within the community. Since 1964, communities from across the North West have demonstrated their ability to create and maintain attractive environments that benefit residents and visitors alike.
From the mill towns of Lancashire to the picturesque villages of both Cheshire and the Lancashire coast, every city town urban community and village is eligible to enter. We also look for entries from tourist attractions, hotels, pubs and shopping centres. The aim of the competition is to encourage the improvement of our surroundings through the imaginative use of trees, shrubs, flowers and landscaping. It also aims to achieve a litter free and sustainable environment.
