Welcome to The Glasshouse Blog, where we cultivate conversations around second chances, well-being, social impact from various members of our Social Enterprise, including our team in prison and recently release. Our blog delves into the benefits of bringing nature indoors, highlighting how plants can transform office spaces, enhance productivity, and contribute to a healthier environment. We also explore the broader impact of environmental and social governance (ESG) initiatives, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and plant-based programs supporting prison rehabilitation.
