Do you mean sublet for money!!
Or just share the plot and the produce?
If someone can't manage their plot - and there is a waiting list - it should be given up IMO.

Im to selfish to share my plot. as for subletting to make money...totaly defeating the object in my opnion.if a freind wants a bit of land i would comprimise and do what i did...i said..i dont want you messin my garden up and claiming bits left right and center. I will do my normal gardening and dedicate 1 row or a set quantity of veg in exchange for (whatever skill the person has) in my case it was mechanics.

Check your contract - most do not permit subletting.

No
no,

... and if someone is concerned about their partner taking over the plot when/if they die, then perhaps it would be prudent to change the names in the tenancy (if that is allowed ) before the unhappy event?

Allotments should never ever be sub-let for money. This is totally against the principle of allotments, and forbidden by most (if not all) contracts.

I get "help" on my allotment from my daughter and the grandchildren but it's not sub-let to them and I am always with them when they visit.

If a tenancy is put in joint names at the start then surely if one partner dies, the other can carry on if they wish to.
