Details for Oakham in Bloom's annual quiz night have been released.

On Saturday 29 October, the group of local gardening volunteers will be hosting their annual quiz night, open to the whole community.

Oakham in Bloom volunteers aim to improve the environment for people who visit or live in Oakham.

The group was formed in August 1997, and the committee consists entirely of volunteers and works in partnership with Oakham Town Council, Rutland County Council, schools and youth groups, voluntary organisations, residents and businesses.

They are involved in many projects around the town all year round, from planting baskets, containers and beds to bigger challenges such as the bypass roundabouts.

​Their work is funded by generous sponsors, donations and lottery. Although they work on improving public land we get no monies from either Rutland County Council or Oakham Town Council.

As such, fundraising events such as this are essential in helping the group continue their hard work.
