Description

Local Councils are legally obliged to provide land for allotments, but what are the further obligations and consequences of this commitment?

The National Allotment Society (NSALG) is the leading national organisation upholding the interests and rights of the allotment community across the UK. They work with government at national and local levels, other organisations and landlords to provide, promote and preserve allotments for all. They will take us through the following headings. The day will finish with a question and answer session, which will cover any additional thoughts as a result of the day’s training
