New planter for Market Harborough in 2025
The club planter, in the town High Street, was replaced in July 2025
The Rotary Club of Market Harborough replaced its planter outside the Old Town Hall in the High Street, in July 2025. The planter gives a warm welcome for people entering the town. The old planter had been in place for many years and was disintegrating. This project which will enhance the town for its residents and visitors.
Fortunately, Harborough District Council came to the rescue by awarding a grant to replace it, for which the Club is very grateful.
A special thanks goes to the volunteers from the Market Harborough in Bloom group, who assembled the planter, oiled the wood and planted it up.
