AN ANNUAL display of flowers is returning this year for the first time since the pandemic began.

The Charmouth Gardeners Annual Flower Show will be going ahead on Saturday, August 14.

The event will take place from 2.30pm both at the Community Hall on Lower Sea Lane and the Village Hall on Wesley Close.

Exhibits will include flowers, fruit and vegetables, home produce, photography, children’s sections and Handicrafts (needlework, woodwork, knitting and painting).

We welcome entrants for all classes although *fruit and vegetable produce* must be grown within a ten-mile radius of Charmouth.

A spokesman for the event said: "We are all looking forward to a return to normal after the sadness and despair of the Covid pandemic and are hoping that people from Charmouth and surrounding areas will join us at The Charmouth Annual Summer Show.

"Please do join us, it’s a fun community day."

Free show schedules and entry forms detailing all free to enter classes will be available from Fortnam Smith & Banwell Estate Agent’s Office in Charmouth from mid-July - with details of where to return them to by Wednesday, August 11.

Entry on the day is £1 for adults - which covers both halls and children can enter for free.
