The Breathing Places campaign has a simple purpose: to inspire you and your family, friends and neighbours to create and care for green places where you live; everywhere from local parks, school grounds and workplaces to your local wildlife reserves.

A Breathing Place is somewhere you can escape the hassles of everyday life and get your hands dirty; where you can listen to birdsong, admire the bluebells in spring and simply appreciate the stunning colours in autumn. It’s a place where you can rediscover the wonders of nature.
