Parks, leisure and the arts Management of our allotment sites

Managing your allotment

All Manchester’s statutory allotment sites are managed by the Parks Service.  

On most of our sites, the day-to-day running of the allotments is managed through a Site Association which represents the interests of all tenants on that site (both members and non-members). Officers of these Associations will act on behalf of the Council. Membership of this Association is recommended but is not compulsory.

The Association may also manage any buildings on the site on our behalf. 

Tenants are responsible for the upkeep of their own plot and are expected to support the current allotment rules as part of their tenancy agreement.  Persistently breaking any of our rules will result in your tenancy being ended.

Remember - persistently breaking any of our rules will result in your tenancy being ended.
