Nuneaton's only florists has opened inside the former Co-op travel agents in the town centre.After business blossomed from a store in Bedworth, Kimberley Hyde decided to expand to Nuneaton. She has opened the doors to Kimberley's Occasions today (February 1) inside the now revamped former Co-op travel agents in New Century Way. Although the main feature is the flowers, there is also a section dedicated to wedding events as well as another for cards, gifts, party decorations and balloons. "The main feature will be flowers, Nuneaton does not have a florist shop and I am excited to bring one to the town," Kimberley, who lives in Caldwell, said.
