DALTON Town Council is appealing to members of the public to keep the town’s floral displays in bloom this summer.
Residents are being asked by the council to help out by watering the newly-installed planters to keep them looking fresh.
A spokesman for the town council said: “One of our biggest problems during the summer season is the watering of the planters. The flower towers are watered by the contractor, however the wooden planters and mining cart planters don’t have arrangements in place.”
Dalton South councillor Shaun Blezard said: “This is a great initiative from the town council to allow the community to get involved and take ownership of the planters.
"Well done to everybody involved and especially those who have volunteered to help so far.”
