The following has been received from the allotment admin department at the city council.
Unfortunately, I have to report that it seems several organised break-ins have occurred on allotment sites across the city recently. Some of the break-ins seem very similar in nature to a series of break-ins two to three years ago.
It would be sensible if possible to continue to consider ways of improving short-term site security and the storage locations of any plant and equipment.
In view of the above, you are reminded to always keep all main gates locked. Do not let anybody in who you don’t know or who haven’t got a key. If they don’t know the secretary’s name they should not be on site.
