Sponsor's own description
Contact with nature promotes human wellbeing through diverse pathways, providing a potential way to support health especially in primary care, where patients commonly suffer from multimorbidity and poor general health. Social prescribing as a non-pharmaceutical treatment is a promising method to improve health as well as inclusion. This study explores and compares the effects of a nature based and an exercise based social prescribing scheme on mental wellbeing, physical activity and sleep, in a primary care population.
