Upton in Bloom

Upton in Bloom is a community volunteer group enhancing Upton upon Severn's appeal through floral displays, funded entirely by sponsorship and fundraising. Due to Covid challenges, we faced funding issues for 2024 and had to retire our watering van.

The Blues Festival Grant of £2000 helped us purchase summer bedding and a powerful water pump for maintenance. In May 2024, we planted 104 containers and two large flower beds, receiving positive feedback from the community. The grant has been crucial for our plans and fundraising efforts, ensuring our work continues 2025.

Thank you to the Blues committee for their support.
