“Our group has been exploring Leith’s green and blue spaces—like parks and the Water
of Leith—to see how they affect our mental health and wellbeing. We’ve used the Our
Outdoors app to record how we feel in these spaces, taken lots of photos, and shared our ideas for making these places better for everyone. We’ve also learned about how green and blue spaces can help people feel calmer and happier, and we’re planning to create a digital map to show off everything we’ve discovered!”
“We’ve been using the Our Outdoors app to explore and rate local green and blue spaces.
The app lets us share how we feel when we’re in places like parks, rivers, or open spaces by answering questions and adding photos. This has helped us think about what makes these spaces special and how they could beimproved. It’s a fun and easy way to get involved, and we’d love for you to try it too!You can use the app to share your thoughts and ideas about your favourite outdoor places.”
