Allotments
Have your say! Click here to view the Allotments section on the Worthing Borough Council's website
From the Worthing Advertiser, 7 July 2010 Residents are being asked to dig in and give their views on allotments for the future. Worthing Council's allotments scrutiny working group is about to look into how existing and future allotment plots can be better used, investigating the possibility of cost-neutral plots and reviewing the long waiting lists. The working group would like to help residents already on the waiting list and those who would like to get onto the list, so that everyone can have the chance to grow their own fruit and vegetables, and work towards a healthier lifestyle. Michael Dean, chairman, said, "Allotments are a really popular and healthy way of growing your own food and as a consequence, we have a long waiting list of residents who would like one of their own. "But with limited land and resources available for new allotments, we face a major challenge to meet demand." Views on what can be improved and what is liked are sought, but the deadline is tomorrow (Thursday, 8 July) Contact Mark Lowe on 01903 221 0009 or mark.lowe@worthing.gov.uk
