This is an excellence advance by @NICEcomms to help patients [when appropriate, to] make a choice over their care and reduce their #CarbonFootprint. The UK is a world leader in decarbonising the economy, cutting emissions by more than 40 per cent since 1990. #environment
#NationalGardeningWeek is a great excuse to spend some time outdoors and remind yourself of our case studies and blogs about the benefits of #greenspace sustainablehealthandcare.com…
