Corona virus/Covid 19 - Social Distancing
The committee is concerned that as time goes on, we will become complacent about observing social distancing. This must not happen!
Chant
"Observe Social Distancing - maintain 2 metre separation."
"Observe Social Distancing - maintain 2 metre separation."
"Observe Social Distancing - maintain 2 metre separation."
"Four legs good, two legs bad."
Also, if more than one person is working a plot, those people must be from the same household. People can't bring relatives and friends to their plots if they don't live together in the same household.
Plot Vacancies
The allocation of plots has been paused for the duration of the lockdown.
There is now a waiting list for plots (24 people on the list).
If you are interested in being placed on the waiting list, send your name and a contact telephone number to:webmaster.newhall@gmail.com
We will contact you when plots become available.
Plots are of different sizes, we recommend starting on a smaller plot and then upsizing once you have gained some experience. Prices are on the lettings page.

Rubbish
Just a reminder. The council does not provide any form of refuse collection for the allotments. So that means we must remove all unwanted rubbish ourselves. Please remember, whatever you bring on site, you must remove yourselves when its useful life has come to an end.
