The built environment can contribute to mental wellbeing, or affect other risk factors for poor mental wellbeing. This seminar, in partnership with North Belfast Partnership, explored how the built environment shapes wellbeing, and focused on ways in which planning can help create environments that support positive mental wellbeing. It also considered the ways in which local communities can help inform and guide this process.
Delegates heard presentations from The Conservation Volunteers, Belfast Healthy Cities, Ligoniel Healthy Living Centre and Prosocial Place.
