Local communities in bloom

Congratulations to Ponteland and Morpeth! The two towns have been awarded gold awards for their entries for the Britain in Bloom competition. Ponteland was awarded a gold award in the Small Towns category, and Morpeth received gold in the Towns category. Britain in Bloom is an annual competition run by the Royal Horticultural Society which recognises towns and communities for their floral displays and landscaping. The Ponteland and Morpeth communities really did come together for the competition- well done to everyone on this fantastic achievement!
