South Liverpool-based florist, Booker Flowers & Gifts, is celebrating its 35-year business milestone. This much-loved local wedding supplier, specialising in bespoke floristry, will be marking its own special occasion by gifting bouquets to 35 deserving community champions. With spectacular attention to detail, these lovingly created arrangements will even include blooms of coral and jade hues, the traditional colours to mark a 35-year anniversary.

It’s fantastic that we can now celebrate such an important birthday with our friends, family and customers in the community by giving something back.” Gemma is asking people to tell her and the team who they think deserves the title of Community Champion, and they’ll take care of the rest, creating a stunning bouquet for the chosen nominees.
