Understanding what works and supporting provision of nature-based therapeutic interventions for people with an identifiable mental illness

This research aims to deliver greater understanding and insight to support effective delivery of nature-based therapeutic interventions for people with mental illness.

This research will review available evidence and existing practice to identify effective interventions and practice in the provision of nature-based mental health therapies. The project aims to deepen our understanding of what works, for whom, in what circumstances, and why, and identify the kind of interventions and delivery models that demonstrate the greatest benefits. The research should examine the barriers and challenges to the effective provision of nature-based therapeutic interventions and provide recommendations for how these could be overcome.

The project should seek to inform and support current and future provision of nature-based mental health therapies; how these could be planned, delivered and promoted further in practice.
