Residents: Our secret? It's teamwork
There are many reasons for our success but the main one is the dedication of volunteers who are committed to making sure everything is done well.
However, despite what people may think, Britain in Bloom is about more than just pretty flowers. To be named champion of champions, you have to demonstrate a commitment to biodiversity and there has to be a great deal of community involvement. The whole village has to get behind it.

Of course, one of the main reasons for our success is the village itself, which is one of the most beautiful in the country. It's hard to improve on it, really, but we always try.
