Now more than ever we are becoming more dependent on outdoor spaces to improve our health and wellbeing. Green environments are associated with reduced levels of depression, anxiety and fatigue and can enhance quality of life for both children and adults.
Access to good quality greenspaces, such as parks, allotments, woodlands and fields varies greatly on where we live.
