Your Greenspace

There is a greenspace near you that you really care about, but it could do with some TLC and you want to make it brilliant. A space that is vibrant, that everyone in the community wants to use and is full of wildlife. You and your neighbours may have many great ideas about what you want to but how do you get started? This handy checklist sets out what you need to think about and how to go about finding out the answers. It will also be a way for you to think in more detail about what you want to do.
