Congratulations to all who helped to win gold for Walthamstow! Especially to Helen Lerner who has been the driving force behind this. Here is her latest posting on the facebook group page

Walthamstow Village in Bloom: ""Walthamstow Village was awarded our first GOLD medal and London's Best Urban Community for the third year running at City Hall on 16 September. Many, many thanks to our brilliant Gardening Club volunteers, our residents, businesses, community groups and gardens, Vestry House Museum gardeners and staff, the almshouses, Henry Maynard School, St Mary's Church, I Kuan Taoists and not forgetting Paul Tickner and Waltham Forest operatives, Kier Group, Hoe Street Ward Councilors, MP Stella Creasy and EVERYONE who joined in to make this success possible. And, last but by no means least, our in Bloom team Teresa Deacon, Graham Sherman and John Chambers (and me, Helen Lerner). The Britain in Bloom finals are in St Andrew's on 24 September! We'll keep you posted!"
