SWCAA INSURANCE SCHEME FOR ALLOTMENT HOLDERS AND GARDENERS

Like it or not, insurance is part of everyday life. On allotments, in this age of compensation culture, many local authorities are now demanding £5million worth of cover as part of the terms of any lease agreement. To the average plotholder this may seem daunting, especially following a number of reports in the national press regarding extortionate costs of public liability insurance for allotment tenants. To read these reports you would feel this is the end of the road for the allotment, with insurance costs forcing the price of renting a plot well beyond the reach of the average plotholder.

Despite media statements on allotment insurance born out of journalistic sensationalism where the facts were twisted, insurance for allotments does not have to cost anything like what has been quoted. Therefore there is no reason why the price of a plot should escalate, whether your local or parish council or an allotment association manages the site.
