Yate in Bloom - much more than planters, hanging baskets and flowerbeds!
Britain in Bloom is not just about formal spaces, but about improving our community, gardens and open spaces.
If you would like Yate to be a part of Britain in Bloom, or just enjoy volunteering, gardening or being part of something worthwhile to our community, please come along to a meeting and join in.
The project is being supported by:
A Blooming Good Time at Yate Station
Following the inaugural meeting of the Yate in Bloom group it was agreed that Yate Station would form part of the competition.
It was felt that the area to the rear of the Gloucester bound platform gave visitors to the town a poor impression and if this area could be cleared and flower beds built it would have a large impact on the welcome visitors receive to Yate.
Severnside Community Rail Partnership has sought the appropriate authorities for clearance of the land and during the summer months will start work with the Avon & Somerset Probation Service and South Gloucestershire Council to clear this area of the overgrown vegetation.
Once the initial hard work of clearing the area has been undertaken and the flower beds built the Partnership would be very interested to hear from volunteers who would be willing to maintain the flower beds.
If you would like to get involved, please email Sarah Collins at Severnside Community Rail Partnership:
