Please can people tell me if their site provides wheel barrows for members to use?

Nor on ours although they have a shed full of old tools discarded by members who have given up their plot

Good grief, no !!
I rent from the Borough of Charnwood and there are numerous other sites in the Borough run by various Parish Councils etc and at least one site owned by De Lisle (who seems to own a lot of land round here) and none provide such things.
Perhaps those private sites run by Wyevale and similar would do so but they are in another league rent-wise.

Yep, we have a few old barrows that are kept near the gate for anybody to use.

Yes, we have 3 barrows kept near the gate for anyone to use especially to transport from the car park to the site. We renew these every 18 months or so as they are well used especially when the manure delivery comes in

No not provided, but I am lucky I have friends that let me use theirs, but maybe not on the day that the compost arrives. Did have a plastic fold up one from Lidle which was useful until it split.
