Join us and become a Wellbeing Walk Leader. You will be part of a team leading easy walks along the canal in the Maghull area once a week.
Walking in the great outdoors can make you feel better both physically and mentally. Our 2,000 miles of canal towpaths provide largely flat, traffic-free walking routes, taking you from the inner city right into the heart of the countryside.
Our aim is to give people the confidence to get out walking and enjoying the outdoors in a safe way and help people be healthier. To do this we need people to share their enthusiasm for the benefits of walking with others in their community by leading walks in your local area.
You'll work with the Task Manager, Walk Assistants and other Walk Leaders in your area to deliver a range of accessible walks that enable people to bring activity into their lives and feel then benefits. Full training will be given.
We want everyone to have access to a short, friendly group walks within easy reach of Canal & River Trust waterways where they live to help them become and stay healthy
