 The Land Trust
 is passionate
 about the
 physical and
 mental health
 benefits that
 green space
 can bring.

 Health for Life project


 Our Health for Life project, which featured in the
 pages of last year’s annual review has continued to
 be recognised as an exemplar piece of research.
 The project was submitted for consideration
 for presentation at the Public Health England,
 Cardiovascular Disease Prevention Conference
 and was selected with our Director of Portfolio
 Management, Alan Carter, and Managing Director of
 Green Gym, Craig Lister presenting in front of health
 professionals at the event at Old Trafford.
 Alan also presented the research findings at a
 Place and Health Day organised by the Landscape
 Institute, and it was nominated for awards at the
 Horticulture Custodian Awards and the North West
 RICS Awards.
 We give thanks to the members of our Health
 Advisory Group for their assistance and support over
 this last twelve months. The wealth of knowledge they
 bring to the Trust is greatly appreciated.
