Helping Shape the District

BWS would like WDC to include our site as Allotments on the Local Plan for the reasons set out in my letter dated 08.07.08 below:

Binswood Allotment Society is a local amenity. The society has a membership of 117 and a waiting list of 25. The membership is drawn from all walks of society and ethnice backgrounds. Our membership includes all age groups, single people, married couples with young children, the retired and elderly. Most of our members live in the North Leamington area.

Members work on their plots to produce vegetables and soft fruit and their harvest is usually tastier and fresher than similar imported produce flown in from the Mediterranean or South America. Members benefit from the exercise taken in the fresh air away from the noise and bustle of everyday life and the fellowship that the Society provides.

It is for the reasons briefly outlined above the Binswood Allotment Society wishes to remain an amenity for the people the living in the North Leamington area.
