Taking time to enjoy your local outdoor green space could bring you huge health benefits – getting outdoors is good for your physical, mental, and social well-being. Regardless of age and ability, there really is something for everyone, including groups and organisations in your local area that can support you.

You may not be the “outside type” but we aren’t talking mountain climbing and adrenalin sports here, we’re talking small steps to make a positive change. It could be anything from a walk to the local park or some windowsill gardening (you can bring the outside indoors too!).

You can refer yourself for some advice and support below; and this will also link to your patient notes so your GP is informed.
