Summary
A neighbourhood's physical environment plays an important role in shaping the health of its community. It provides paths for walking, parks for playing, and opportunities for social interaction and cohesion. The aim of this research is to identify what elements of the physical environment children have relationships with, and understand how these elements influence their mental health.
