The Allotment’ is a heartwarming story of an unlikely group of people brought together by their different circumstances. At the centre of this story is the Allotment itself, a place of healing, solace, and friendship, where even the most unlikely characters can find a sense of belonging. There’s Neil, the army veteran battling PTSD, and little Brenda, the unlucky-in-love girl dealing with a cantankerous mother. Then Bill, who finds comfort in his plot after the passing of his wife. Dougie, the sweetly innocent Down Syndrome boy with a secret girlfriend and Amanda, the lonely, middle-aged warden, and finally Mary, the young widow who takes over her late husband’s allotment despite having no gardening experience - each character offers a unique perspective to the story. With the help of the soil, they will all, most of them anyway, find healing and happiness in the Allotment.
