New film by ‘Being in Nature’ co-author explores vital role of nature in cities

    A new film by ‘Being in Nature’ co-author James Farrell and Founding Partner at The Human Nature Partnership explores the vital role of nature in cities.

    ‘The Great Green Wall of Brighton’ celebrates the role nature plays in the health and wellbeing, and focuses on some of the special features of Brighton & Hove in the UK.

    First, the health-giving properties of the sea. Second, the ‘green wall’ on the eastern seafront in Brighton that was created by the Victorians 150 years ago as a unique and influential example of integrating architecture and planting for the benefit of people and wildlife.

    Made with LatestTV, James Farrell interviews a range of national and local experts, and includes stunning new footage from Latest filmmaker William Ranieri alongside historic images.

    The film can be watched here, and on LatestTV, and goes live primetime across UK local TV networks from 11 February.

    The film was made by LatestTV with James in his role as Founder of community network Brighton & Hove Building Green – where you can find out more about this amazing green infrastructure.
