02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Troon Allotment Society leases a fully enclosed area of land in Fullarton Woods Estate, Troon from South Ayrshire Council. The Allotments are run by a volunteer committee, Troon Allotment Society, and are allocated to any person living in South Ayrshire Council. It is expected, by South Ayrshire Council, as a condition of our lease, that 60% of any allotment plots are used for cultivation of fruit and vegetables. Some of our plots are used by other OSCR registered charities e.g. Dementia Friendly Troon and Villages, Look Outside the Classroom and Friends of Fullarton. We also have weekly summer visits from our local school via a Community Learning Programme. This means that, in the growing season, we can have over a hundred young people and older people visiting and participating in growing. In 2025 we obtained ARIA funding and renewed our perimeter fencing.
