Community-owned planter stolen from town centre
A large town centre planter, which is used to help brighten up a Moorlands town with flowers, has been stolen. And the culprit(s) who took the barrel style planter from Town End in Cheadle not only stole the continuity-owned plastic tub but also emptied out all the soil onto the the area where it had stood. The planter had been purchased by volunteer group Cheadle in Bloom some years ago, along with many others which are situated across the town centre and are planted out each year to bring floral joy to the Moorlands town.

Cheadle will still bloom this year
A town's annual summer floral display is set to carry on thanks to a gardening business in the Moorlands. Volunteers of Cheadle In Bloom normally carry out the work needed to create the town's colourful floral display during the summer months, but this year, due to the current coronavirus situation, they have been unable to. However, a gardening business in the local area has come to the rescue to ensure the town is, once again, decorated in glorious flora.
