Making parks count

This report makes the business case for parks, why they matter and why they are a ' smart investment ' . It argues that parks in England deliver more than £ 6.6 billion of health, climate change and environmental benefits each year, including £ 2.2 billion in avoided health costs alone, and that for every £ 1 spent on parks in England an estimated £ 7 in additional value for health and wellbeing and the environment is generated.
