We are delighted to invite members of our Green Health and Tonic Arts networks to our combined Green Health and Tonic Arts Network event, looking at how we use arts and greenspace to improve wellbeing in hospitals and health care settings across Lothian.
This in person event is free to attend and will be at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital, with a welcome to set the scene for the afternoon and some lunch – which will be provided.
You will then have the opportunity to take part in a range of workshops where you will work with other network members to share your experiences and develop your learning.
Find out what’s been happening across our Green Health programme as well as some useful links and resources.
