School gives away plots of land so families can have allotments

SEVEN families in Cooper's Edge have won the chance to grab some land and grow their own.

Cooper's Edge School in Typhoon Way ran a prize draw offering plots of its land to meet the demand for allotments in the area.

The winning families included the Morgans.

Andrew Morgan said: "There is actually a lot of demand at the moment, many families are looking for allotments.

"Me and my wife Jodie run a childcare business called Cooper's Edge Childcare and we were keen for an allotment space. We often bring the youngsters up here. It is a good way for them to gain some knowledge and patience as they expect products to grow over night. It is a good way to get dirty."

They are using their space to grow vegetables including green beans, potatoes, onions, chilli and a selection of fruits.
