It offers so many benefits to our social, mental and physical wellbeing. • It is our childhood memories, • Fun with our own children, • Our sports arenas • A great outdoor space for friends and family. With our lifestyles becoming more sedentary it’s increasing important for us all to have an outdoor space to enjoy and be active. The value of outdoor living a green space has never been more vital. • Lawn encourages us to play. • Green space makes us feel good, allowing us to clear our minds and help us relax. • To us it is a back lawn, to the kids can be a stadium to win cricket and footy. Studies have shown it is safer to play sports on natural play surfaces for long term injuries and health. • Just Being outdoors with the family and friends, breathing fresh air and unwinding in your own outdoor room makes us feel good. • Nothing like relaxing with the grass between your toes and a good book You’ve got to love a lawn!
