Wednesday 26th February 2020: Green space and health (GS & H)
9am - 5pm
Come along to our new one day course on green space and health to understand the evidence, learn about different examples of green prevention and therapy and how you can integrate this into your own practice. Aimed at healthcare professionals in primary and secondary care including those working in mental health, rehabilitation, diabetes or musculoskeletal conditions. We would also like to train leaders who want to look after their staff and manage services differently.
During the day we will teach participants about the two-way links between health and the natural environment; share the results of our work looking at use of green space in healthcare settings for patients, staff and the wider community; as well as discuss how to improve the green spaces or set up a green walking project in your organisation.
Full details and programmes for two of the courses may be found on the CSH website, here. The programme for the third day on Green space and health will be added soon.
