JUBILANT townsfolk heard today (Friday) that Evesham had been named best medium town in the Britain in Bloom awards for the Midlands.
The town's entry into the competiton is the culmination of hard work throughout the year by the Evesham in Bloom committee, headed by former mayor Diana Raphael.
The town's entry had shown strong community support and Evesham Town Council was also praised for its backing.
Stratford-upon-Avon - a regular winner - was beaten into second place.
