NHS means Natural Health Service in Lanarkshire
The volunteer groups at Douglas (Lady Home), Kirklands (Bothwell), Cleland and Coathill in Coatbridge have been set up as part of NHS Lanarkshire’s Green Health Partnership.
The programme has recently joined forces with the Clydesdale Food Network, which supplies locally-grown produce to the Clydesdale Foodbank as well as weekly healthy eating sessions at Clydesdale Community Initiatives (CCI) Community Kitchen based in Lanark.

Activities at each of the hospital sites see volunteers growing food, learning new horticultural skills, planting fruit trees and improving each site for people and biodiversity.
