Donington in Bloom is a community group based in the village of Donington in Lincolnshire.The group comprises of local residents all of whom are volunteers and whose aim is to improve and maintain a stimulating environment for themselves as well as the wider community in and around Donington.This is achieved by enhansing the appearance of the Village with containers,hanging baskets, troughs and beds which are planted with bulbs, bedding plants and sustainable planting.



For the last 7 years Donington In Bloom has taken part in the East Midlands in Bloom competition gaining a GOLD award in 2010 and 2011. As a result of this we have been chosen as a Britain in Bloom Finalist for 2011 and 2012. Also in 2011 we recieved the Judges Gold Award.
The Bloom has a small committee whose job it is to fundraise and acquire funds from grants to ensure the continued improvement is maintained.
Anyone wishing to join the Bloom group would be most welcome and can be a committee member or a valuable worker helping to plant and maintain the village.
Each year we try to brighten the centre of the village during the flower festival fortnight when the church is decorated. This we do by pinning statics with flower heads, this year we have our usual two plus three new ones on loan.
The Bloom group enter a float each year in the Spalding Flower Parade. This year the float was called "An English Country Garden".
