The Green Health Walk at the Prestwich site of GMMH is being featured in NHS England’s new photography exhibition, “Care for the future: delivering the world’s first net zero health service,” at COP26 - the United Nations Conference of the Parties.

GMMH has significantly improved patient experience and supported mental health system pressures through an innovative programme titled ‘The Perfect Week’.
