Quick exit

On a vibrant September evening, the community came together to celebrate the flourishing gardens and green spaces that make our neighbourhoods bloom-literally and figuratively. The Magenta In Bloom 2025 event was a heartwarming showcase of creativity, care, and community spirit.

The evening kicked off with an introduction from Adam Woodcock, Community Regeneration Lead Officer, who highlighted the importance of green spaces in fostering wellbeing and community pride. The audience was treated to an inspiring talk by Gary Wootten from Made On My Patch, who shared stories and insights about the power of local green initiatives.

Magenta In Bloom 2025 was more than just an awards night-it was a celebration of community, creativity, and the green spaces that bring us all together. Congratulations to all the winners and participants who continue to make our neighbourhoods bloom!
