Parishes in Bloom is a special event being organised by Blackburn Cathedral as part of the Cathedral's own centenary celebrations and with an open invitation to parishes across Lancashire. There will be a special exhibition at the Cathedral in August.
The theme will be ‘Celebrate the Uniqueness of your Parish’ and churches can interpret this as they wish.
The Cathedral will be open on Thursday, August 20 from 9.30am until 4.30pm for displays to be assembled.
The exhibition will then be open to the public from Friday August 21-24.
For more information, including how to register to take part, contact Canon Andrew Pratt MBE and click here for the event page on the Cathedral website.
