Greening school playgrounds in Sheffield to improve children’s health and wellbeing
Sheffield Business Together and its partners are greening school spaces to combat urban air pollution. From green barriers to wild gardens and vegetable plots, these collaborative projects reduce exposure to harmful pollutants while creating vibrant, educational outdoor environments. Already benefitting hundreds of children in schools like Hunter’s Bar, Lowfield, and Hillsborough, the initiative is a scalable model for health, sustainability, and community engagement.
