Gardens Matter

As the summer months approach our thoughts naturally go to our outside spaces and how we might use our gardens.

Did you know that there is a direct correlation between relationship-centred care and the regular use of outside space, regardless of the condition or design of the space?

Research has highlighted that it is not the money we spend on getting our garden designs right, but the time we spend on getting our garden activity right for each resident which will improve on the amount of time our residents will spend outside.

If you would like to explore more about this subject take a look at the initial guest blog which explains the research of Step Change Design Ltd.
