The Saddlebridge unit has benefited hugely from the tree planting which has enhanced the healthcare environment for clients and staff. Tree planting also ties in well with the buildings’ eco credentials as it has been designed to for both solar hot water and solar electricity generation.
A further 100 trees, sponsored by The Great Outdoor Gym Company, were planted at Saddlebridge in 2014 as part of NHS Sustainability Day of action.
10 trees were planted as part of NHS Sustainability Day of Action 2015 donated by the NHS Forest.
