Plotholders will probably have seen the news that Newcastle City Council is reversing its decision for charity (Urban Green) to run the city's 60+ allotments. The formal decision was taken in January 2025 and it's expected the transfer will take place before March. Our allotment committee has been kept in touch with developments and attended a meeting of Newcastle Allotment Working Group (NAWG). You can read the Evening Chronicle news story here and and the Urban Green statement.
