Improve access to outdoor and green spaces that inspire physical activity, support wellbeing and a connection with nature

Press/Media: Expert comment

Description

For psychological wellbeing in children and young people, every child, teacher, parent and care giver needs access to environments that enrich their physical health, including for physical activity. We need to support all those invested in children, young people and education to recognise the connection between physical activity, wellbeing and mental health for all children, young people and their teachers.
