Understanding the state of England's urban green space and its impact on people's health and well being
1. Understanding the state of England’s urban green space and its impact on people’s health and well-being Helen Beck, Public Space Research Advisor, CABE
Black and minority ethnic communities fare worst. Areas with very few BME residents can have up to 11 times more green space than areas where more than 40% of the population are from black and minority ethnic groups. And the spaces they do have are morel likely to be of a low quality. If this discrepancy was in terms of the number of hospitals, or the number of schools, would people stand for this glaring inequality? This matters. It has a knock on effect on people’s health and wellbeing. It compounds the impact of deprivation.
Shockingly less than 1 per cent of people living in social housing in our study said they used the green space on their estate.
