Health Walks are a supportive and welcoming way for you to start enjoying the many benefits of being physically active
A Health Walk:
• is a friendly group walk
• takes place regularly
• is led by a trained Walk Leader along a risk assessed route
• is less than an hour long
• welcomes new participants who would benefit from being more active
• is an opportunity to meet new people in your area and explore places you might not have been before
Health Walks are aimed at those who would benefit most from being more active and meeting others. This could include people who haven’t been active for a while and would like to start again, people recovering from ill health or who are managing a long-term condition, and anyone who’s been told by a health professional that they would benefit from being more active.
Those joining a local walk enjoy a whole range of benefits including increased fitness, improved mood and increased social interactions with other people and the local area. Taking part is free and requires no special equipment, making it an ideal way to become more active.
