Here are the Talking Points following our WA Committee meeting on the 1 June.
Bath in Bloom – calling all gardeners
Have you ever thought about entering the Bath in Bloom competition? They are actively seeking more entrants from the community. You don’t need a big garden. Small and beautiful is just as good, as is an allotment or any other outdoor cultivated space. To enter follow this link – http://www.bathinbloom.org/bath-in-bloom/bath-in-bloom-competition .The deadline for entries is Monday 7 June.
Garden Club – 22 June – visit to gardens at Wingfield
Janet & Marc Berlin have kindly invited us to join them for an afternoon stroll around their magnificent 1.6 acres of gardens set within Wiltshire farmland. The gardens include a large duck pond, lawns, ericaceous beds, orchard, vegetable garden, spinney and wild area of grass, trees with many wildflowers. Tea and cake included in the ticket price.

Widcombe Association Magazine
The magazine has been printed and is out with our volunteers for delivery. So it is on its way and will be delivered soon if not already. It is also be available in local shops. If you are a Widcombe Association member and don’t receive a copy please let us know. I hope you enjoy reading the magazine. Ideas for future content welcome to our new editor Colette Hill on magazine@widcombeassociation.org.uk
Subway artwork
Good news! The subway mural will be started on 2 August which will be a great improvement to that approach to Widcombe. Many thanks to those who have donated to this project. So far we have raised £290 towards the target of £500. If you still wish to make a donation to help us extend the amount of the art work, the details can be found at Subway appeal
