Levenmouth Green Health Partnership

Levenmouth Green Health Partnership

November 12, 2024
For many years the NHS and H&SCP have been excellent at identifying the social and economic determinants of health and wellbeing, building healthcare approaches based on this understanding.ย  Environmental determinants of health and wellbeing however, are still largely identified as threats to, and not an opportunity for good health, with the likes of, air pollution, flooding and water contamination dominating the conversation.ย  The Levenmouth Green Health Partnership (LGHP) seeks to flip this narrative, promoting nature based health interventions in an effort to legitimise green health approaches within the community and local healthcare provision.ย  Our approach is based on the Our Natural Health Service Model pioneered by NatureScot.
