UPTON Bishop allotmenteers no longer have to queue at the tap to fill their watering cans, thanks to a grant from the Monmouthshire Building Society Charitable Foundation.

With funds from the foundation (and some competitive pricing from Ross Farm Machinery and Hale & Co, of Drybrook) the Allotment Association purchased and installed a new dip-tank.

The MBS Charitable Foundation awards grants to local organizations and charities such as youth groups, the hospice movement, support groups and the environment.

The Upton Bishop allotmenteers are very glad that they did!
