Update on Implementation of Glover Review

The Review of National Parks and AONB's argued that our system of national landscape should be a positive force force for wellbeing.

The Landscapes Review of National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England argued that that our system of national landscapes should be a positive force for the nation’s wellbeing, and made a broad range of recommendations for working together in new ways to become more than the sum of their parts. At this event, Defra officials will outline some of the work that has been happening to implement the review since the report was published, in particular highlighting a new government project which aims to improve people’s mental health through green social prescribing.
