COVID-19

Message from the Chairman: 'Many of you have asked either myself, or the BDAC what the advice is regarding allotments during the current Corona Virus outbreak. Our advice is to follow the Government Guidelines. You can also keep up to date with 'allotment specific' advice on the National Allotment Society website.  

LOCKDOWN UPDATE on CHANGEOVER of LOCKS and ISSUE OF NEW KEYS

​

We have now issued over 160 new keys to plot holders so have approximately 100 more plot holders who need to be issued with new keys before we change the locks. It was our intention to hold key issuing sessions at the clubhouse on the next 2 weekends but the national lockdown means these will have to be POSTPONED until DECEMBER. This means we cannot change the locks in mid November as planned and now intend to do so in mid December, providing there is no extension to the current lockdown.

Thanks to everyone who collected their keys and contributed to the overall cost of the changeover. A special thanks to those of you who generously contributed more than the suggested £10 to help subsidise the cost for those who cannot afford to pay. As previously reported we are not receiving any funding for this from the Council and it is being paid for entirely from funds raised by plot holders.

​

I will post again when there is further news.
