At the Broughton Astley Volunteer Group we are very often reliant on the help and support of our local volunteers, sponsors and generous donations.
The BAVG Community Allotments have undergone a dramatic transformation since our last newsletter with micro plots and community bays now built, painted, and filled with compost ready for the selected members to get growing. This could not have been possible without a number of companies.
Hinckley and Rugby Building Society has awarded a substantial sum to the project which has already been a big help and will continue to do so as the allotment develops. Also a big thank you to Coles Plant Centre, Enderby Young Farmers, the Co-op and a generous private benefactor, who has a keen interest in the local community. Thank you to all our volunteers, for all their hard work, enthusiasm, experience, fun and friendliness they bring to the project.
So what’s next? We are looking at a children’s area, interactive compost area, group work area and ultimately a high-level planter for our disabled community.
Want get involved in any capacity? See our facebook page BAVG Community Allotments or by emailing bavgallotments@bavg.org.uk
A big thank you also to the volunteers that have been helping “clean up the old BAGA hut” ready for it to become the new BAVG Gardeners hub at Western Willows.
A new kitchen is on its way and plans are underway for further activities!
