Public Health Scotland hosted the Green Health Learning Network (GHLN) event on Tuesday 16th December, bringing together researchers, practitioners, and community organisations to explore the theme of Blue Health: Research, Practice and Innovative Partnerships.
We’re pleased to share that Prof Simon Bell, Co-Director of OPENspace, spoke at the session, offering insights from ongoing research into the value and potential of blue spaces.
The online session will highlight leading academic research on the wide-ranging benefits of blue spaces, alongside real-world examples from community groups using water-based activities to support healthier lives. Strategic leaders will also share emerging opportunities for collaborative partnership working in this area.
The event was for anyone interested in health improvement, community engagement, or environmental wellbeing.
