Allotments are mini gardens which you can rent or buy to grow your own fruit and vegetables. Allotment sites are available across the UK, and a range of support networks exist to help you find and develop your site. Allotments can help you reduce your food footprint, and lead a healthier life!

This will keep individual rooms warmer and stop heat dispersing round the house to be wasted.

Did you know: The desire for beautiful gardens can put increasing pressure on our remaining peat bogs, which are often wildlife oases. We can easily avoid using peat compost - ideally by starting a compost heap or a wormery. About a third of our waste can be composted - kitchen scraps, grass cuttings and so-on. If this kind of matter is thrown out and sent to landfill, it turns into methane - a potent greenhouse gas which, like CO2, contributes to global warming. Otherwise there are readily available alternatives on the market including bark-based compost and garden waste recycled and packaged by councils.
