Paul West and Fran Hoey are back behind their microphones to talk to SallyAnne Logan about garden communities and what it takes to set them up. SallyAnne is Enabling & Delivery Team Leader at Ashford Borough Council and Non-Exec Director at Otterpool Park LLP and talks about her involvement in both South of Ashford Garden Community and Otterpool Park Garden Community.

They are joined by fellow 4OC'er, self-confessed social housing nerd, Andrew Muir.

In this conversation we find out about:

* The history of garden communities and how Ebenezer Howard created the first about 100 years ago.
* What it takes to plan, design and build a garden community
* Who needs to be involved
* The balance of #socialhousing vs #privatehousing
* The environment influences on garden communities
