Northfields Allotments
On behalf of the Northfields’ allotments committee and all our plotholders – We wanted to say a big THANK YOU for your support.In September 2016 we were told by Pathways, our landlord, that it intended to build on 10% of the allotments. But, this week, Pathways officially informed us that it will now NOT be building on Northfield allotments. We really couldn’t have done it without local residents’ support. Many of you signed our petition and donated to our fighting fund to pay for specialist legal and planning advice. You bought our cake, dressed up as vampires and hopefully enjoyed the mulled wine. The trustees saw you at our open days in your thousands and realised the allotments were valued. You helped the trustees change their minds and their decision to build on the allotments. It is a wonderful result. THANK YOU.Our summer open day is on Sunday 7th July - I do hope you’ll join us for tea and cake. The site should look at its best and I hope you’ll agree that it will be hard to imagine why anyone would want to cover it in concrete.Christina FoxChair Ealing Dean Allotment Society
