Multimillion Dollar North Shore Hospital Garden Already Halfway Funded w/ Well Foundation CEO Tim Edmonds: 1 November, 2023

With the construction of a new facility at the North Shore Hospital in Auckland underway, the Well Foundation has put together a campaign to put five hundred plants inside the massive four hundred square metre atrium. 

Extensive research has shown that gardens improve health outcomes, reduce admission time, and reduce blood pressure. 

The Well Foundation has asked the public to fund this $2m campaign, and has already received $1m in funding. 

To get a deeper look into the health benefits of plants for wellbeing, and to find out more about this project, Arno spoke to Well Foundation chief executive Tim Edmonds. 

Arno started the interview by asking about their “Give A Bit Of Green” project.
