Challenges for London

Lack of Access to
Green Spaces
Lack of Knowledge

Lack of access to green space correlates with low health and wellbeing outcomes. This disproportionately affects the poorest in London, perpetuating cycles of poverty and low wellbeing. By supporting individuals and groups to engage with their green spaces, we support healthy lifestyles and more sustainable urban communities.
