Recent trespass and vandalism on the site.

Dear Member,

On the 10th and 11th April the allotments suffered two incidents of youths entering the site and causing significant criminal damage to a number of greenhouses and sheds. The police were called on both occasions, and the good news is that the culprits were all caught while still on the site.

The committee has contacted all plot holders who have been affected.  If you have not been contacted by us and you discover your plot has been affected by the recent vandalism please do report this to the police, otherwise the culprits, who have been caught, will not be charged with anything and the Police will be unable to take any further action.

You can report this by telephoning 101 (non-emergency policy number), or you can report it online using this link: https://report.police.uk/. Make sure you say that the damage occurred at Roding Road Allotments, Loughton, and give your name and plot number.  Please do confirm with the committee and share with us the crime number you are given. You can notify us that you have reported a crime, using the contact form on our website, or speak to a Committee member when you are on the site.

If you did not receive this message by email, and you would like to receive our "Allotment Watch " email bulletin, please provide / confirm your email address.

We're one of Waitrose Community Matters causes!

Every month Waitrose local branches donate £1000 between three local good causes that their customers choose.

At the checkout customers receive a token, which they then place in the box of the good cause they would most like to support. The more tokens a cause gets, the bigger the donation they receive.

So if you're shopping at Waitrose Buckhurst Hill please do drop your token in the Roding Road Allotments & Leisure Gardens box!

We will be operating a new seed scheme for 2017.  The scheme is still with Dobies and the committee will issue catalogues as before.

Individual members order from and pay Dobies direct using a unique code which will be sent with the catalogue. The code will give 50% discount on seeds and 15% on everything else the same as last year.

You may also receive special e/mail offers.  Catalogues will be available Sept/Oct .  Please let me know if you require a catalogue.

The Gate locks are changing

0 Comments

 
It is planned to change all the gate padlocks on Wednesday the 11th of May 2016.

A new key will be issued once your yearly rent has been paid, the garage will be open on the following dates for rent payments and key collection 

  • Sunday 3rd April 2016
  • Sunday 10th April 2016
  • Sunday  17th April 2016

Keys will be issued on the basis of one key per member, regardless of the number of allotments you let. Joint names on the tenancy agreement will not automatically mean that two keys will be issued.

Second keys or joint name tenancy extra keys will only be issued at the discretion of the committee, with an additional charge of £30 per key.  Please request in writing to the Association Secretary applications for second keys stating why you require a second key.   

There will be no charge for a key issued to existing members. Lost keys will be charges at £30 plus an admin fee of £10. Deposits for returned keys when giving up the tenancy will be refunded at the original deposit paid when the tenancy commenced or the deposit paid for the second or lost keys.

If you will be unable to collect your key from the garage a key will only be available after the 18th April 2016 from Letting Officer by appointment.

If you have any further questions or need to make an appointment to collect a key please contact Robert Tong, Lettings Officer.

Please note Keys will be only available from the letting officer and other committee members will not have any keys.
