Thirty-fifth RECLAIM webinar - NHS Forest and GBGI in Portsmouth

•    Harriet is the Woodland Creation and Tree Planting Project Manager for the NHS Forest. This is a project run by the Green Space for Health team at The Centre for Sustainable Healthcare. Through this role she has the privilege to enable people to improve their NHS green spaces. She has been able to use my previous experience running conservation and tree planting projects in East Anglia to support applicants with their green space improvements. Whether that be through supplying them with free trees, training, advice, or volunteers, their mission is to encourage NHS green spaces to be improved so that they benefit patient, staff and biodiversity.  

•    Felicity Harris works for Portsmouth City Council providing strategic leadership for the council's Greening Strategy, which focuses on Resilient Biodiversity; Effective use of nature-based solutions and Equitable access to nature and the benefits from nature (or put simply, better lives where nature thrives). She has spent 25 years working in the nature / people / health space including as Programme Director for Green Space for Health at the Centre for Sustainable Healthcare and Head of Participation and Learning at Plantlife International. Her interest in climate resilience builds on working in international development with a focus on trees and rural livelihoods.
