Calverton and Woodborough Allotment Association
Following the collection of allotment rents and membership subscriptions at the Village Hall the association membership is healthy, which is very good, but there are still quite a lot of people who have not yet renewed their membership. If you would like to renew, you can do this through your site representative or at the trading shed on Sunday mornings. There are many benefits from membership including access to the trading shed for stock and tool hire as well as insurance for you in the event of an accident on site.
This has been another difficult year for us and most plans for 2021 had to be cancelled. However your committee were able to make sure that the basic business of the Association continued and I would like to thank them for their efforts. It is to be hoped that as the Covid booster vaccinations roll out we will be able to plan activities with the confidence that they are likely to happen. I look forward to letting you know about any trips and visits for 2022 and arrangements for the President’s Cup and our AGM in the near future.
Finally, can I once again encourage non-allotment holders to consider giving the idea of having an allotment some thought. There is no doubt that this year many of us have felt the benefit of being able to take exercise in the fresh air, in a very safe environment with the bonus of fresh produce to put on the table. If you would like to give working an allotment a go please contact the Parish Clerk by ringing 0115 8498195 (Woodborough) or 0115 9654560 (Calverton).
