THERE were smiles all round as the Acocks Green Village in Bloom team raised more than £700 for this year’s competition.
Another Bloomin’ Good Night Out was organised by the team in a bid to raise much needed funds.
There were representatives from Arden and Hazelwood Road residents’ associations, the 260th Scout Troop, some shopkeepers and local councillors.
For the last two years, the Village in Bloom team has gained Gold in the Urban Category of Britain in Bloom – and this year the team are now aiming for Best in Urban category.
