NHS Lanarkshire and Paths for All. The project aims to improve the health and wellbeing of people
in Lanarkshire by getting more people walking more often.


Current opportunity

Help others to become healthier and happier by leading our health walks. The walks are free, last no longer than an hour and go at a gentle pace. Apart from taking people on a walk, walk leaders will welcome new walkers, give route information (where, how long/ how far, hazards), encourage some social activity and deal with a bit of paperwork. Optional activities are assisting with promoting the walks. It is up to individual volunteers to decide how much they want to commit, but to ensure some continuity we would ask that you consider your availability for leading walks before doing the health walk leader training day. We're looking for volunteers fairly urgently for the following walks, please get in touch if you can help: Tuesday morning: Rutherglen Tuesday morning: Chatelherault, short walk Tuesday morning: Lesmahagow Wednesday morning: Stonehouse Wednesday morning: Symington Friday morning Cambuslang: Friday morning East Kilbride Saturday morning: Blantyre And for potential new walks in: Hamilton, Larkhall, Forth, Abington, Crawford, Leadhills, evening or weekend walk Carluke,
