Waiting lists are subject to change and we will endevour to always give up to date information.
Priority will be given to people on the waiting list who do not already have an allotment plot. Prioroty will also be given to people who live in the non parished areas of Swindon.
Unfortunately we are unable to give an waiting time for any particular plot. if you are on a waiting list we will inform you when a plot becomes available.
Due to the nature of allotment gardening it is quite often the case that an overgrown plot has a sitting tenant, so this is not an indication that the allotment plot is available
We do have an inspection regime and non cultivation of plots , which is against the term and conditions of tenancy, is in place
Plots left unattended or allowed to overgrow with weeds will be re-offered, once due procedures have been followed.
