The Health & Wellbeing of people working in horticulture
In 2021 Perennial commissioned the inaugural Health and Wellbeing Survey for the horticulture industry to help understand more about the challenges facing people working in horticulture and barriers to making improvements in order to help build better futures for the whole community.
Using the findings from the Health & Wellbeing survey (2021) along with research on the demographics of the horticulture industry (Labour Market Research 2021) we are developing a picture of the health and wellbeing of the industry.

- Build a culture of wellbeing
- Develop our knowledge base
