Green Health Hub

Green Health Hub mission

The Green Health Hub was established by the New Forest National Park Authority in 2023 to improve health and wellbeing outcomes for people through improved connections to nature, as well as encouraging time spent active and engaging with communities.

The Hub was formed as part of a Green Halo project on behalf of the organisations and groups represented on the site, collectively known as the Green Health Network.
