In June 2025 I was invited to the lovely village of Cannington to give the bus stop a re-vamp! The Cannington in Bloom Group work tirelessly each year to add flowers, foliage and greenery to their streets. They organise litter picks and fund raisers to enable them to spread the benefit of plants to locals and visitors alike.

In 2025 they wanted to increase the colour with a vibrant bust stop decorated with plants, foliage and imagery inspired by the local landscape and agriculture. The bus stop was painted with help from local people and volunteers. It’s now a bright addition to Cannington and makes an impact even on a grey day!
