Health walks

If you want to enjoy your local park, meet new people and benefit your health and wellbeing, come along to the volunteer health walks. These are friendly, low-key walks for all ages and abilities.

In order to expand the walks programme, we are looking to recruit more volunteer leaders, especially those willing to lead a regular, fortnightly or even monthly weekday walk. One day of full training and insurance is free. For more information or to find out about volunteering as a walk leader, call the Council's community services team on 01992 785555 extension 5909.
