You will recently have received an email from Woodley Town Council (WTC) announcing its new Allotment Plot Inspections Policy.
The Committee’s Plot Inspection Team will be using this policy as the basis for this year’s inspections, which will begin during the week commencing 11th May 2026.
To help tenants better understand what this means in practice, the Committee has updated its document “Plot Inspections – What are the Criteria” (attached), in line with the new WTC policy.
We hope this updated guidance will be helpful and will support tenants in meeting the inspection criteria. In particular, we encourage the use of the recycling schemes that the Committee has introduced to help improve the overall standard and appearance of the allotment site.
We have also updated the 2026 Welcome Pack (attached). Although this is issued to all new tenants via WTC, we felt it would be useful to share the latest version with existing tenants on our mailing list as well.

We welcome any feedback on these documents. Please reply to this email and we will respond as soon as possible.
Many thanks &
Kind regards
Mike McNamara
Chair – WATA Committee
