The St. Clement Parish in Bloom team have won a Gold award in the 2025 RHS Britain in Bloom competition, held in Brighton on 31st October 2025. This is the first time the Parish has won a top-tier award at national level.
Alli Singleton, Team Leader at St. Clement Parish in Bloom says: “It is an incredible achievement for our small team of dedicated volunteers to be recognised in this way. The RHS Judges visited us in August to consider our entry in the Small Coastal Town category. This wasn’t an ideal time for us, with ongoing drought conditions and improvements to the coast road and Parish Hall. It was a very stressful time, and to receive Gold is remarkable.”
The Judges were introduced to the ‘best of’ of St. Clement, with a visit to St. Clement’s Meadow, Le Hocq Common, and various presentations in the Parish Hall. They were also chauffeured around the parish in the Honorary Police car, and visited Chambard Allotments, the Parish Church and Samarès Manor.
The Parish in Bloom team spends months preparing for the competition, creating a portfolio which focuses on the horticultural, environmental and community engagement across St. Clement.
The portfolio showcases all the incredible activities happening in Jersey’s smallest parish.
