Trust in Bloom at Rodley House
The results of this year’s Trust in Bloom gardening competition have been announced, and results show that Rodley House in Lydney, is more than just a ‘one trick peony!’
Rodley House were finalists for best overall grounds and gardens and the winners of the best rear garden award! Residents, the team and volunteers were delighted with their win as they have worked tirelessly over the last few months to get ready for the competition and ensure the gardens are looking beautiful.
The gardens at Rodley House are also home to some vegetable plants which have provided a delicious harvest of plums, blackberries, potatoes and more this year. No food miles at all!
Karla Tutton, Deputy Manager said “Everyone has worked really hard to make our gardens not only a tranquil space but a space which is inviting for our residents living with dementia too.”
Well done to everyone who entered, at Buckland Court and across the Trust. Your hard work ensures our gardens are a wonderful place for our residents to spend time. And congratulations to Monkscroft Care Centre in Gloucestershire who were crowned overall Trust in Bloom winners 2021.
