How can you help?

Hadley Road Community Allotment at CR4 1NU, have obtained planning permission to build a classroom and toilet on their allotment site.

The photos shows current works being undertaken on site for the classroom. The toilet and classroom will be finished by October 2024.

At present, we have 2 plots which have already been earmarked for use by students at a local school and college.

The current footpath is not user friendly hence we need the funds to design and build one to make it accessible for all users by October 2024. We need to raise £28,000 to complete the project.

We would be grateful for your help and support, and would welcome you for a tour of the Allotment if you wish whenever in the area

Rewards

For a donation of £50.00, your name will be added to the "Wall of Donations" that will be erected at the main entrance of the Allotment and you will be given a personal tour of the site by the Committee Chair of the Hadley Road Community Allotment.
