The primary aim of Walk for Health is to help the service users to stay physically and mentally strong and healthy, especially during Lockdown restrictions, by encouraging and engaging them into the walking habit, either individually or with family members. Walk Facilitators are recruited to help deliver this project.

Views and Feedback from the Walk Facilitators
“The scheme has been a great success, a truly unique and fun job. I am a people person so this job has been a great opportunity to meet new people and find out about their backgrounds and perspectives. This also motivated me to get
out and walk in what are the coldest and least inviting months of the year. As well as meeting new people and finding out about them, it has been an immense privilege to help make their lives better.”
David Gautier
“I needed such a project that restored my confidence in dealing with others and supporting them to have a good experience in difficult Covid conditions. Very happy with the success of the experience and I hope that this project will be repeated in better conditions to achieve more success.”
