Gold for Uppingham!

Months of hard work were rewarded when Uppingham was announced as a Gold award winner (Small Town Category) in the 2018 East Midlands in Bloom competition.

Uppingham in Bloom chair Miranda Jones hailed the win and said it meant the town had now qualified for the national finals to be held next year.

Speaking soon after the awards ceremony held in Newark on Wednesday (September 19), she said: “The Small Town category is the most competitive and has the most number on entrants so this is a big achievement for us. We are thrilled…and is testament to all the hard work that everyone put in.”

If you would like to be part of this winning team, come along to the Community Volunteer Fair on Saturday 13th October (11am – 3pm) and see how you can get involved.  Alternatively contact Miranda Jones mirandajones2015@outlook.com  for more information.
