Our parish has won two awards in this year’s North West in Bloom competition.

Haslington won silver medal in the best small town category and Winterley also won a silver medal in the best large village category.

This is a tremendous achievement in the face of competition from towns and villages all over the North West of England and is a direct result of a lot of  hard work from many many people. Well done to you all.
