Default new to lawns

Hi,
We moved into our house in Oxford last year and initally put some seeds
down just by hand. After the winter it's looking very worse for wear and
there are lots of patches. I wonder if anyone can tell me what the best
thing to do now would be and when? I've been looking at maybe getting a
seed spreader to help with the job, but not sure if this is right or
which one to get??
thanks so much in advance for any advice!

Although you didn't say what kind of grass, generally, grass will spread to
cover, and you probably don't need to do much except fertilize about the
first of May. Also, if available, spread compost over your lawn.
Good for grass and soil.

Good luck, Bob-tx
