Front gardens on the front line – webinar recording and presentations

Front garden loss is not a trivial issue, but one that can directly affect our lives.

In fact, the explosion of paved areas is a major contributor to the misery of residential flooding, putting around one million properties in England at risk. Paving over even the smallest of front gardens also contributes to hotter cities, air and water pollution, and devastates the numbers of vital pollinators. Overlooked, apparently trivial, yet restoration of front gardens would be a simple but powerful tool to combat climate change. People often ask, ‘What can I do to help the planet?’ One answer is literally on their doorstep.

This was the subject we explored at our webinar in November 2024. You can see the recording, presentations and some great websites and resources where you can find out more, below.
