Green Therapy | The Healing Power of Gardens

There’s not a lot better than getting out in nature and it’s something Linda Stuart realised 40 years ago. 

She visits Packwood House and Garden almost daily to get a nature fix, and credits it with getting her through some really challenging times. 

Join Linda as she shares her story with Heather Birkett.
