North West in Bloom is part of Britain in Bloom - one of the longest running and well known environmental competitions in the United Kingdom.
The competition encourages the improvement of our surroundings through the imaginative use of trees, shrubs, flowers and landscaping. It is also about creating a litter free and sustainable environment.
Help build on Oldham's success last year when we won the Best Town Centre and a runner up prize in the City category.
