A blooming success for Kingsbridge

Kingsbridge Town Council and South Hams District Council are proud to celebrate the remarkable success of Kingsbridge in Bloom, who have been awarded a Gold Medal in the ‘Small-Town’ category at the South West RHS Awards Ceremony in Torquay. The town also received the prestigious ‘Champion of Champions Cup’, recognising it as the top-performing town or village under 10,000 population.

This achievement reflects the tireless efforts of the Kingsbridge in Bloom team, led by Chair Adrienne Benton, and supported by a passionate group of volunteers, residents, the Town Council and District Council teams. 

Adrienne said: “This award is a wonderful recognition of the incredible efforts of our volunteer gardeners and Kingsbridge Town Council and South Hams District Council staff. Their commitment and hard work throughout the year have not only impressed the judges but have also made Kingsbridge an even more beautiful place to live and visit

“The recognition highlights the continued success of Kingsbridge in Bloom and the town’s dedication to creating welcoming, attractive spaces for residents and visitors alike."

Thanks to everyone's amazing effort and involvement, we have done it again.
