Green is more than beautiful! | Greening phase 2 AvL completed
The greening of Antoni van Leeuwenhoek (AvL), the hospital and research institute specialising in cancer, is in full swing! The central hall has undergone an impressive transformation into a green oasis filled with plants.
Together, we’re not just beautifying the space, but also bringing hope and confidence to those who need it most.
On Friday 15 November, the second greening phase was officially unveiled. This unveiling highlighted the power of plants in the healthcare environment, endorsed by dozens of scientific studies1. Plants offer numerous benefits for the recovery and well-being of patients and visitors and help to find peace of mind.
