LB Islington includes Bloom in Corporate Plan
“In Islington, In Bloom has really been rising in prominence over the last year or so in the borough amongst senior Leaders. Members have seen first-hand how it brings people together through gardening, benefiting their health and wellbeing and reducing social isolation and that it is about so much more than who’s got the best front garden. So much so, that for the first time ever, Islington in Bloom has been included in the Council’s Corporate Plan and we now have a performance indicator for how many entrants we have in the competition. Recognition of how In Bloom contributes to the Council priorities of a Fairer Islington where everyone no matter what their background has the opportunity to reach their potential and enjoy a good quality of life.”
