NHS Lanarkshire’s quit smoking team has unveiled new handmade signs at a number of their hospital gardens.
The Quit Your Way team, in conjunction with the Green Health Partnership, unveiled the new smoke-free signs which aim to ensure patients, staff, and visitors can enjoy a relaxed smoke-free environment while attracting bees and other garden wildlife to enhance the outdoor areas.
The gardens were created by NHS Lanarkshire’s Green Health Programme and integrate green activities into patient rehabilitation programmes and dementia groups. Patients grow fresh vegetables on the sites and all produce grown is used within NHS Lanarkshire or donated to the Clydesdale Foodbank.
