    Good luck - your in for an uphill struggle in some areas - for many having car parking space or "low maintenance" is more important than a garden which could bring them happyness and some bio-diversity!

    Good to see people are helping to educate and bring awareness to this.

    Im leeds based - not sure If I can help, but happy to be involved.

    The RHS has campaigned on this front. I'm with you all the way on this one.

    I'm in! Had a run of three or four front gardens in a row last year and got quite excited by trying to promote using these spaces to their full potential.

    Then got disheartened by seeing garden after garden given over to block paving, yaaaawwwnnn.

    Wrote a short blog on alternative materials/ideas for driveways which got some interest although many return to the price issue and block paving rears it's head again.

    Permit and overcrowding is a big problem and roads are turning to concrete paved hot cold barren landscapes and drags an area down. Good luck and happy to support.

    Hi Ludivine

    I'm up in West Yorkshire so not sure if that helps?  I share your convictions....  It's not just about single front gardens but the value of neighbouring front gardens compounded together.  This benefits are not just for the owner of the house but for us all.
