The annual barbeque will be on Sunday 30 September from 1pm onwards. Always a great RAA event, this is an opportunity to come along to talk, share, feast and fest with other RAA members, with good food, drinks and great music by ‘Larkin’ from 2pm too. Some food (mostly for the barbecue) and drinks will be provided but please bring a dish to share and a bit more to drink if you want to make sure there’s enough for a good party!

‘King of thieves’ opens in cinemas on 14 September starring Michael Caine, Jim Broadbent, Michael Gambon, Tom Courtney, Ray Winstone, Paul Whitehouse and many more. There was a scene shot at our allotments but did it make the final cut? Does anyone have photographic evidence to share? ‘You were only supposed to plant the bl**dy potatoes….’

General Data Protection Regulation 2018 (GDPR) is legislation which came into force on 25 May 2018. As an organisation, Rosendale Allotments Association (‘RAA’ or the ‘Association’) hold personal information about our members, customers, and visitors. We use this information, such as contact details, for three main reasons:

– To carry out our duties to you, as a member, customer, or visitor of our organisation;
– to let you know about things which might interest you; and
– to monitor the use of our services, in order to ensure we are delivering good quality.

Under the new law, we are allowed to continue holding and using members’ and customers’ data for the first reason. This is because, as an organisation, we have a ‘contract’ with you.

We are also allowed to continue holding and using members’, customers’, and visitors’ data for the second and third reasons, as we have a ‘legitimate interest’ to do so. However, we must allow you to ‘opt out’ of this use of your data, if you prefer.

The Association takes the privacy and security of its members’, customers’, and visitors’ data seriously, and we will endeavour to meet our legal obligations under the GDPR in order to ensure your individual rights. If you have any questions or concerns, please send us an email, or complete the form you’ll find if you click here, or on the ‘Contact us’ tab, above in the menu.
