Claire Watts, from Brandon in Bloom, said the town wanted to do something for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee and then decided to go for the record.Ms Watts said the previous record was more than 23,000 pompoms, "but we smashed it".

The pompoms were laid out on a playing field in the town and volunteers counted and recorded each one on video, which was submitted to Guinness World Records' adjudicators.
