Description

This research aims to deliver greater understanding and insight to support effective delivery of nature-based therapeutic interventions for people with mental illness.

This research will review available evidence and existing practice to identify effective interventions and practice in the provision of nature-based mental health therapies.

The research should examine the barriers and challenges to the effective provision of nature-based therapeutic interventions and provide recommendations for how these could be overcome.

The project should seek to inform and support current and future provision of nature-based mental health therapies; how these could be planned, delivered and promoted further in practice.
