Step by Step

The aim of this section is not to offer horticultural advice, but to give tips, hints and assistance on how to bring your entry to life and keep it flourishing in what we hope will be a long and sustained Bloom partnership.

Once you and your community get started, you’ll form your own ideas for improving your local area for the benefit of local people.

Here are some pointers to help you on your way:

Step 1: Ask your local Authority if they have an Officer responsible for enabling Civic Pride
Step 2: Form an action group
Step 3: Put together an action plan for the year
Step 4: Get support from your local community and let them know what is happening
Step 5: Develop a plan to help you succeed in your fundraising efforts
Step 6: Leave no stone unturned and stay positive
Step 7: Develop your own constitution and open a bank account
