New Members We welcome new members and have a waiting list. Currently we have about 70 people on the list and the time lag is likely to be 2 years. Every applicant gets a personal waiting list number and will be kept updated through our monthly newsletters.

Our site is an exceptional one in many ways but we do wish to point out that running an allotment needs time and dedication, possibly a minimum of 6 hours per week. Some of our new lets are (regrettably) overgrown and need a lot of work in the first few months. Some media portrayals underplay this side and it's well worth talking to current members to get a more realistic picture and advice. Or, do ask for a meeting with a Committee member on site to see what is involved.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Jim Layton. (Committee Chair)
