Gardening has huge social and health benefits. Yet for many people green space is scarce. Churches have an opportunity to serve their communities through the creation of a therapeutic garden or a gardening club - but how do you get started?

Green Health is about making the most of your church’s green space to promote community health and well-being. In this introductory video we visit gardening projects at St Paul’s Camden Square and St John's Waterloo.

Green Health is an initiative of the Church of England, the Church Times, The Guild of Health and St Raphael and The Conservation Foundation.
