Flower Power in Aberfeldy
Thanks to a fantastic effort by the committee of Aberfeldy's Move2Improve, volunteers, local community
and local businesses the town won third place in the large village category in this years
Take a Pride in Perthshire competition.
Chairman W. Leszke reported: "We were aware that our town was looking a bit dull and we needed to inject
some colour in the summer months. With the help of some businesses we managed to brighten the streets
up with 60 + hanging baskets. It was a big gamble and we knew the success depended on the townsfolk
respecting the displays we introduced.
"I am very pleased to be able to thank everyone in Aberfeldy for doing just that. The knock on effect
has seen many residents looking after and caring for their own gardens and premises thus adding to the
overall impact. This has been recognised with the town securing third place at the awards. Well done
everyone".
The committee of Move2Improve are already planning next years floral displays. Their dedication and hard work along with the continued support of the local community is sure to give us a bright and colourful town again next year for both townsfolk and visitors.
