Cover Story: The Conservation Volunteers’ (TCV™) Green Gym encourages contact with nature, social interaction and physical activity by engaging in guided practical conservation activities. Sessions can be attended flexibly. Users take part in different activities such as planting trees, sowing meadows and establishing wildlife ponds. The University of Westminster and the University of Essex evaluated TCV Green Gyms in England and Scotland to see what the wellbeing benefits were. Before engaging in a Green Gym, users’ wellbeing levels were lower than average UK levels. Engagement in a Green Gym over several months was associated with enhancements in wellbeing. Wellbeing benefits were comparable between Green Gym users and average UK levels. Users who started Green Gym with the lowest levels of wellbeing showed the biggest increases in wellbeing.
