SUMMARY:Volunteers Needed\, Flower Bed Planting
DESCRIPTION:Bishop Auckland Town Council is inviting local residents to take part in a Community Planting Day on Wednesday 15th April 2026\, from 10am to 3pm\, as part of its enhanced commitment to maintaining and improving floral displays across the town. \nThis year marks a significant step forward\, as the Town Council has taken full responsibility\, from Durham County Council (DCC) to cover the costs and maintenance of all of the town centre planting\, ensuring that Bishop Auckland continues to enjoy vibrant and welcoming floral displays throughout the year. \nAs part of the programme\, there will be spring tubs in the Market Place in time for the annual Food Festival\, these will then be accompanied with a range of planters\, including three tier displays in the Market Place\, Newgate Street and Theatre Corner.  The Flower beds on Bob Hardisty Drive will also be planted with sustainable plants which will come back year after year. \nCllr Michael Siddle\, Chair of the Allotment and Environment Committee :\n“Bishop Auckland’s floral displays are something our community has always taken pride in. Although we all recognise that the town is going through a difficult period of regeneration\, the Town Council is committed to keeping our public spaces bright\, colourful and welcoming. Last year\, we had fantastic success when volunteers came together to re‑plant the hanging baskets. This year\, being mindful of the rising costs of watering\, we won’t be installing hanging baskets\, but we will be ensuring that there are vibrant floral displays across Newgate Street and Theatre Corner\, not just in the Market Place. \nWe’re asking residents to join us for a few hours to help plant up the flower beds in the Market Place. Whether you’re an experienced gardener or simply want to do something positive for the town\, your support will make a real difference.” \nResidents are encouraged to attend any time between 10am and 3pm. All tools and plants will be provided\, and no gardening experience is necessary. \nVolunteers are simply asked to bring enthusiasm and suitable outdoor clothing. \nLater this year the Council plans to plant an assortment of bulbs which will bring spring colour in 2027\, and information will be shared as to how communities can get involved. \nThe Community Planting Day will take place at:\n📍 Bishop Auckland Market Place – Next to the War Memorial\n🕙 Wednesday 15th April 2026 – 10am to 3pm \nFor more information\, please contact Bishop Auckland Town Council on 01388 207110 or email council@bishopauckland-tc.gov.uk. \n
