Malvern in Bloom Local Competitions
Traders Competition
Malvern Town Council invites all residents and businesses in Malvern to take part in the Malvern in Bloom Competition for 2008. This will provide an opportunity to contribute to the floral displays that have become an important visual attraction in Malvern in recent years. The competition will be judged on Monday 14 July 2008 from 10.00 a.m. The competition will be split into three categories: Small Businesses: Large Commercial Businesses; and Licensed Premises (this includes bars, restaurants and hotels).

Residents Competition

Traders Window Competition
The Traders Window competition will be judged on Wednesday 2 July 2008 from 10.00 a.m. The theme this year is "Local Roots". Shop owners are invited to decorate their shop windows with objects that have particular significance to Malvern.
This could include locally grown or sourced foods, books by local authors or historical photographs taken in the area.
The displays will feature as part of a "Bloom Trail". This would involve a route around the town, taking in the floral displays initially created for the competition taking place in July.
Malvern’s Entry into the Heart of England in Bloom Competition
Having entered part of Malvern in the small town section of the competition for two years, and won "Gold" the team has taken the bold challenge to enter the whole town in the Large town category of Heart of England in Bloom. Hopefully everyone in the community will take part in improving the floral displays and the overall appearance of all parts of Malvern.
Malvern will be being judged on the morning of Monday 7 July 2008!!!!
The Malvern Sea Cadets are again involved with Malvern’s entry into the Heart of England in Bloom Competition. They are helping to create a historical trail of graves of special interest in Great Malvern Cemetery.
Floral Trail Malvern, Ledbury and Upton-upon-Severn are attempting to boost tourism and interest in their floral displays this year. These towns are combining to create a Bloom Tour route so visitors to each of the towns can easily take a day or half-day to visit the other locations and tour the places featured in their Heart of England in Bloom entries. Each Town is entered in the Heart of England in Bloom competition in a different category and will provide details of the main attractions of their entries this year. The details will be made available in the Tourist Information Centres in each Town for visitors to collect. It is hoped that the initiative will help boost tourism.
Spring planting on Belle Vue Island, Malvern Adopt a Station The Malvern in Bloom team has adopted Great Malvern Railway Station and will assist Station staff with maintaining the gardens, removing graffiti, and making general improvements.
