Organisation/Group:

Willoughby Road Allotments

Why You Got Involved?

To help make the allotments more accessible to the community. Raising the profile to attract plot-holders of the future.

What Impact/Difference is it Making to the Community?

We now have schools, nurseries and community groups using our facilities here. A place where people can come down, have a chat and a drink.

How Would You Encourage Other to Get Involved in Their Community?

Just give it a go. Start small, find something that interests you. Having a sense of community can be very rewarding.
