SGS LRC has therefore put together a highlighted collection of selected books which can help support your mental health, as well as to inspire you to get out in nature!

For further tips and ideas on how to make the most of nature all around you, the folks over at the Mental Health Awareness website have put together this helpful list of Top Tips!
