Britain in Bloom is the UK's longest running gardening competition. It provides a regional and nationwide platform for community groups to brighten up their town or city. Many groups also report wide-ranging social and environmental benefits.
In this short Bayside Radio Podcast, Jeff Pearson meets Britain in Bloom judge Ray Beckworth and asks him a little about the competition and what they look for when visiting towns across the country.
Colwyn Bay will once again be representing Wales in the Best Large Town category.
