Some of the winners of Burnham-On-Sea’s annual Burnham In Bloom competition have received their awards this week.
Organisers recently announced the full list of winners below of the contest, which promotes colourful displays in local private gardens, public areas and at commercial premises.
Dave Perrett from Burnham In Bloom presented several of the awards this week and says: “Congratulations go to all this year’s winners. As the summer has been dry and hot, the displays this year have been some of the best I’ve ever seen. My thanks go to all those who entered and put on displays!”
The Chairman’s Decanter was presented to Simon Gready for his work in being a key part of the volunteering team that maintains public flower beds along the seafront and in Pier Street.
And the team at GH Tyres in Adam Street also received their award from Dave for their superb summer floral displays.
