East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Hull and East Yorkshire Local Nature Partnership, and the University of Hull are calling on residents to take part in a survey to find out what is important to them—anything from conservation work, outdoor exercise, gardening, or mindfulness activities.

This joint consultation aims to understand the health and wellbeing impact of getting out in nature or taking part in outdoor and nature-based activities, as well as how we value the environment and local green spaces.

The results of this survey will help inform future “green-blue” social prescribing services and environmental engagement programmes in the East Riding and wider region.

To take part, visit the council's consultation website: Climate Change & Health – Green/Blue Prescription Discussion.

What is “green-blue” social prescribing?

Green (and blue) social prescribing is the practice of supporting individuals and communities to engage in nature-based interventions and activities to improve both mental and physical health.
