John Fareham and John Abbott have secured action to stop rubbish from the National Avenue industrial estate blowing onto the allotments.
The National Avenue Allotments Association contacted us about rubbish finding its way onto the allotments, obliging allotment holders to spend time picking up litter. As an allotment holder elsewhere myself, I am sure they would rather have spent that time taking steps to either plant something or help it grow. We therefore contacted the officers who have got onto the cash-and-carry firm whose premises adjoin the allotment. The company have carried out a litter pick, moved their bins away from the boundary and have now fitted mesh fencing to stop any further litter blowing onto the allotments. It goes without saying that if this proves insufficient we will be prepared to look into further measures.
