Water Usage on the Reading Road Allotment Site – Survey
The Committee is interested in gathering feedback from all tenants about their thoughts on the water resources at the Reading Road Allotment site.
We have created this initial short survey using Google Forms to get things started. Please let us have your feedback, and we can perhaps develop a larger survey with more detailed questions.
This survey does not allow for long responses. If you feel you have more to add, simply reply via our normal email address of readingroadplots@woodley-allotments.org.uk and let us know what you think about the current water resources on the allotment site.
You can access the survey here: https://forms.gle/zzUPiDqRcAKzMRTe9
We look forward to receiving your feedback.
Many thanks &
Kind regards

This meeting will take the form of a half-term report, where the Committee will report on what has been happening over the past few months since the last AGM, as well as what is planned for the rest of the Committee year.
We are also looking forward to hearing your feedback about the allotment site, including how you think it is looking and how it could be further improved in areas such as water resources, security, etc.
