Health Walks

August 3, 2023 by colin

Hi,

I am getting in touch as you might be interested in hearing about our health walk project.

We currently run 13 health walks throughout the Inner Moray Firth which are led by teams of trained volunteers.

We recruit, train & support volunteers in their role; our walks are designed to be inclusive (some volunteers have completed the additional ‘All Ability Walk Leader training and Dementia Friendly Training). We also work in partnership with other organisations to set up and deliver a health walk.

Walkers can choose to join the walk themselves – there’s no specific referral process, though some do join after being advised to get more exercise by a health professional.

We are always looking for new volunteers, group members, and organisations/individuals interested in starting a health walk in their area.

I hope you find the information helpful and if there are people you could share this information with please do!.

Please let me know if you would prefer not to receive further information from us.

Kind regards,

Jayne
