my sister and i took on one part of allotment in sept of last year and all are 8 beds are full(it is in my name)we like doing it so much that we would like to take on the other part. it is not being used.but phone call after phone call we are getting no were they said to my sister she was number 8 on the list that was in feb.she rang them on friday now she is number 10 .we have 50 allotment were we are and only about a 13 are worked and they say there is a waiting list .
Make a list of the unused ones and take it to the council.
Some councils don't provide many resources to deal with enquiries,
so get down there and actually speak to someone.
with pictures, both of the unused ones, and your own , show them what a good plot looks like, just in case they don't know the difference ;D
How can your sister have moved down the list- is it because they know she's sharing yours?
it is so frustrating when this happens check out your rules,if their is a clause that says all plots should be actively used gather evidense and get the inactive users kicked off
Sadly there is no common law or rule with this which means we can not help you with that problem here.
Find out who is directly responsible for the allotments in your area.
The PORTFOLIO HOLDER FOR ALLOTMENTS at the County Council is the one you need to contact. Your local county councillor will have this information available to her/him.
If it is a private site then you will just have to abide with whatever they say.
Ours are council run, and once the rent is paid that's it for the year ::)
Silly, but that's how it is. I can't see how your sister can go lower on the list either, though having said that, there are always 12 people waiting on our list somehow. Hope you get some joy Lillylottie.
