Are your boots made for walking?

Following the success of recent Volunteer Walk Leader training sessions, Community First New Forest is offering another opportunity for people to train to organise and lead healthy walks across the New Forest. 

The training will be free and held in Lyndhurst on Tuesday, 18 June 2013.

Healthy Walks provide physical exercise but for many people, it is a social event and helps with their general wellbeing. This is an excellent opportunity to keep fit and to help others to get out and about.

On completion of the one day course, walk leaders will be able to plan a route and carry out a risk assessment of the walk route.   After spending the day learning about the benefits of walking, barriers to exercise and how to motivate people, trainees will also have the opportunity to take part in a practice health walk.

If you would like to lead walks on a weekly or monthly basis in the New Forest then please get in touch with Jan Barratt, Healthy Walks Administrator, Community First New Forest, on 01425 482773 or [email protected]
