16 Get Fit, Look Fit, Be Fit We have a number of great walks available so why not get out and join us. Our walks are separated into Level 1 and 2 Health Walks, which are 30 minutes, 60 minutes or 90 minutes duration and Level 3 Friends walks which are more strenuous and include some steep hills and stiles and are over 2 hours duration. You will be asked to complete a brief Walker Registration form before walking with us for the first time. Please arrive ten minutes before start time to register. The walks are FREE and led by keen volunteers who very much believe in improving health through activity. They are led at a pace to suit the group but please choose a level that is appropriate to your current state of health. Under 18 s are welcome on the walks but must be accompanied by an adult. Walking is an excellent natural exercise that can help you to stay healthy, live longer, control your weight and keep you happy It is a great way of discovering your local area with friends and family Walking can easily be introduced into your lifestyle It can improve your mood, increase energy levels, keep your heart strong and reduce blood pressure It is a great way to fight stress and improve mental health For your own comfort and safety, please make sure that you are appropriately dressed for the weather and terrain. Some of the routes will become slippery and muddy after prolonged periods of rain or snow. In particular, wear strong, comfortable footwear and have a wind/ rainproof jacket if necessary. Walking poles can be helpful for some of the more strenuous walks as they will provide some support and relieve pressure on your knees. Please bring a bottle of water on the longer walks. If you are interested in training to become a leader please speak to one of our leaders and they will pass your details to the organiser of the next training day. If you are unable to get to the start points of some of the walks please call at least 24 hours prior to the walk and we will try and arrange a lift for you.
