MAYOR Vilma Collins reckons some residents have done a blooming good job.

The Mayor of Redcar and Cleveland is delivering a message to Saltburn and Margrove Park for their successes in the recent Northumbria in Bloom competition.

Saltburn won the best small town category for the fourth year, while Margrove Park, near Guisborough, received an award of merit in the small village section.

"Every councillor wants to put on record their appreciation for the work and dedication of these two communities."

"We are very proud of them," she said.

Councillor Collins is also to congratulate the council's Consumer and Money Advice Service on being awarded the Legal Services Commission's Quality Mark.
