Membership

Allotment plotholders are full members of RGS, but we have many associate members who garden from home. There is currently a waiting list for allotments/ full membership, but you can join as an associate member at any time. 

If you’d like to find out more, please contact us with any queries or drop into our Store.

Full Members (Plotholders)

All plotholders are automatically full members. You pay an annual membership fee of £8 and an allotment rental cost, which is charged per 'square rod'.

  • Use of allotment

  • Use of gardening store and shared equipment

 Associate Members

Associate membership is open to all and costs £4 per year. It's ideal if you are on the waiting list for an allotment plot, or live locally and prefer to garden from home.
