If you have a totally paved front garden you should be thinking of CHANGING it to something much more environmentally friendly to avoid run-off! There are too many gardens - front and rear - which have been paved over without using porous and permeable materials. There are regulations about what you can do. With changing weather patterns eg sudden very heavy downpours - we need to be more thoughtful about trying to avoid flash floods. Who wants to find that sewage has nowhere to go but up and over everywhere? That Putney Society Competition flyer was brilliant and it is good to hear that there were lots of entries. We are looking forward to hearing more. |
