GREAT news, 'Timperley in Bloom' won a silver award again this year at the RHS Northwest In Bloom, And I am delighted to say that our new entry into RHS 'It’s Your Neighborhood' awards see us receiving Level 5 'outstanding' for Moss Park Gardens.

The Broomwood Wellbeing Centre won a Level 4 'Thriving' and Churchill Living won a Level 3 'Advancing' as a new garden space in Timperley. All contributing to Timperley Village's thriving and friendly feel.

Thanks and recognition must go to our green fingered gardeners, our watering shopkeepers and not least to Brian Crosby, Crosbys and Ridgeway Nurseries for donating so many plants and offering such good advice.

The Mayor of Trafford, Judith Lloyd, will be awarding the certificates at the 'Timperley Welcomes Christmas' event on November 25, 5-7pm, all our welcome.

Timperley Village offers its warmest congratulation to Altrincham in Bloom which has been chosen to represent the North West region in the national RHS Britain In Bloom competition in 2017 in the Large Towns category. Well done all.

Councillor Laura Evans, Village Ward
