Due to a combination of lack of time and inclination my garden is not used at all.
A few years ago some of the neighbours used the space to grow some fruit and veg.
I would like the space to be used - it's a shame to see it almost abandoned.
It's a north facing plot in Meersbrook on Upper Valley Road.
If anyone would like to use it as an allotment please get in touch

Thanks

Hi there.

I am a support woker, i support adults with a learning disabilitie. I have a client who is really keen on the outdoors and currently growing some veg. He is about 20 and is very independent and able. I could ask him to see what he thinks, would this interst you at all?

A mate of mine took up an offer like this one. He got rid of all of the weeds & rubbish, dug it over, planted the veg, then she kicked him off. She got her garden tidied & planted for nothing!

If someone decides to take up the offer, make sure you get something in writing 1st.

Please pass on my details - I am just keen that the garden is used - if it can help someone out then that's even better.

With regard the comment about kicking someone off once some work has been started - you can have written guarantees that this wouldn't be the case. This never crossed my mind - my intention is to see the garden used not to take advantage of anyone.

Thanks
