    Hello, me & the kids are creating a wildlife haven towards to the bottom of our garden, we want to create something like in the attached picture.

    If anyone has any old bricks, bamboo sticks, old carpet or even broken pots then let me know.

    Cheers,
    Ian

      Hi Ian,
      This sounds very exciting :dbgrtmb:. Where abouts roughly do you live? That will enable the closest people to help you. :)

      Have you tried the local Freecycle group? :)

          Keep your eyes open for any skips you pass by. You may find something you can use in one.
          Do remember to ask the person who owns the skip if you cant take anything out of it first though.

            Agree with @Zigs - I've had good experiences with Freecycle. Google for your local group and post a wanted ad :) Good luck!
