Unfortunately the allotment hut suffered an arson attack last night at around 11.00pm. There is considerable damage to both the building and stock. The hut volunteers are on site currently but it is going to take a long time to clear up and we really need some help. If you are able to help either today or tomorrow morning, please turn up to lend a hand. It is quite a depressing experience for the hut volunteers to turn up and see so much damage, so if you are able to help out this would be greatly appreciated. As things stand we shall be closed until further notice.
There have also been further individual plot break-ins last night, presumably by the same group of people. We have informed some tenants we know to have been entered but it would be worth checking to see whether your allotment has also been affected. If so, please inform the police. Each allotment has to receive its own crime reference number.
