Overall aim

This demonstration Health Walk will give The Gathering delegates an opportunity to experience a Health Walk first hand and enjoy some fresh air and gentle exercise at lunchtime.

Description

A safe guided lunchtime walk. All welcome.

Meet at 12:30 by the cloakroom in the Strathblane Hall.

The walk will be led by trained Walk Leaders who will take participants from the venue on a short, low level accessible walk and allow them to feel the physical, mental and social benefits this can bring to their day and the communities that they serve, giving delegates the chance to develop knowledge and understanding of the benefits of this popular activity for themselves. We recommend you bring a coat and wear comfortable shoes and we will take care of the rest.

The demo walk will be led by trained Walk Leaders. It will be short (under 30 minutes), accessible, and free like all other Health Walks.

There are around 870 free Health Walks taking place every week across Scotland and we would like you to be able to experience the enjoyment of walking during this event.
