Story
Volunteers from Blairgowrie & Rattray in Bloom work hard all year round to ensure the town looks as good as it can and is as eco-friendly as possible. Blair in Bloom was the first Bloom group in Perth & Kinross and celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2018. To celebrate this milestone the volunteers chose a new project that will renovate Coronation Corner on Croft Lane in Blairgowrie and create a lasting legacy for the town. A garden was originally planted at the corner to mark the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, but the site has fallen into serious disrepair. The volunteers will completely redesign the area, creating accessible paths, sustainable planting and new seating, to make it a pleasant and inviting space for residents and visitors alike. Once complete, Coronation Corner can be used as additional space for the monthly Community Markets, and for entertainment, music groups, art groups and other such community activities.
