Dear Members

From 22nd November 2024 there will be no access at St Anthony’s Drive entrance for vehicles for a couple of days. However if your coming in on foot just come in as you normally do. Leeds City Council have ordered a skip and are carrying out a plot clearance on plot 43. The skip will have to go on the main through road of the site which will block access for vehicles.

Cars will have to enter site from the Old Lane entrance until work is complete and the skip is removed.

The Skip isn’t avaliable to use by our members on this occasion as it’s been paid for by Leeds City Council. So we would appreciate nobody using it please.

If you are travelling to an organised bonfire stay safe & enjoy the celebrations. Can we also remind plot holders that if they are having fires on there plots to make sure there is no wildlife hiding inside them, using them for shelter.

Just a quick Thank You for the members that attended our Annual General Meeting. We need the support at these events with feedback from our members for the site to move forward and improve. Big Thanks to Mick Hogan for transporting the food from Costco, the food was delightful. A copy of the minutes is in the process of being written up by myself and will be avaliable to read on the site entrance gates in due course.
