Windermere in Bloom 2021

The communities of Windermere, Bowness & Troutbeck Bridge take great pride in the appearance and attractiveness of their surroundings. We live in a very beautiful area that is enhanced by the spring and summer show of colour.

The Town Council provides the funding for the erection and watering of 108 public hanging baskets and railing tubs throughout the community each year. Local businesses help by sponsoring tubs and baskets.

The Town Steward plants flower beds and tubs around the area and maintains them through the summer. He also picks litter, cleans road signs and removes rubbish on a regular basis. This is supplemented by locals who volunteer to litter pick.

The Town Council organises judging and a presentation evening to award trophies and certificates to local residents and businesses whose gardens and displays have impressed throughout the summer. This year, the ceremony was scaled down, to allow for social distancing, and took place at the Marchesi Centre in October. It was a lovely community event and we are pleased to announce the following winners:
