Our Themes

Improving health and wellbeing

The Green Halo Partnership can help improve the health and wellbeing of our population by:

Catalysing new thinking and fresh ideas
Encouraging partnerships and collaborative working to deliver joint projects and programmes. We are particularly keen to build relationships between the private, public and not-for-profit sectors
Ensuring decision-making is informed by robust data on the case for investing in health and wellbeing
Raising awareness of the contribution the natural environment makes to our health and wellbeing.

We will ground all we do in our local environment, ensuring that our natural assets – from woodland, rivers and open spaces to our diverse wildlife – can help improve people’s mental and physical health and wellbeing. In doing so, we will help protect and enhance those assets, and so secure the benefits they offer society.

The ‘natural health service’

A joint accord launched in 2017 to encourage more people to experience the many health benefits of getting out and active in National Parks.
