Title: Some advise please
Post by: Kingfisher on December 07, 2008, 17:52:14
Hi everyone, I am thinking of setting up an allotment committee at our allotment, could anyone give me any advise on how I should go about doing this are there any rules and regulations that we should follow.

We have an allotment in Battle, East Sussex that is run by the council

Any comments would be very much appreciated.

As we are independent I'll leave it to someone who "self-manages" a council site Kingfisher

Hi Kingfisher we manage our own site which is owned by the council and do it very successfully, but before you go down that road is there any reason why you want to set up a committee are the council not looking after the site that you are on or is there something going on that you think a committee would be the best way forward.let us know.
