People in some of the UK’s urban areas are taking it upon themselves to plant seeds in public spaces and transform slices of barren land into flower gardens.

We would like to hear from people in the UK who have recently helped revamp neglected flower beds in their community. Why did you do it and how did it make you feel?

How has it changed the space? Please share any before and after photos.
