General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Rain gardens are very popular in the Seattle area, here's an example of community driven programs. https://www.12000raingardens.org/

That looks great! Thanks for sharing that. Now I have to see if the UK has these.

I think a lot of your areas have similar weather, I think they would cross over nicely. There are tons of clubs and DIY videos here, this is an example: https://www.bhg.com/gardening/landscaping-projects/landscape-basics/make-a-rain-garden/
