One key area is our partnership with 17³ΤΉΟΝψ’s Launchpad charity.

In addition to this, there are ongoing jobs including grass cutting, keeping plots free of weeds, and other general maintenance when corporate volunteers are not available. The Association is also keen to support plot holders who, for various reasons, physically struggle to maintain their plots as often as they would like, as well as helping new tenants get started on their allotments. If you would like to come along as assist with any of the above, please contact us via email. |
