SCL is running several ‘one off’ Salford wellbeing walks cross the city. Walks will take place across various dates from 21st September – 18th October and walks are either 30 minutes or 1 hour duration.
We have been working with our Heritage and History Sites and have some starting from these venues, incorporating a walk outside then inside some of the venues, to add to the sense of Wellbeing. The Salford Community Leisure Wellbeing Walks aim to help people get active locally, are easy walks led by trained volunteer walk leaders.
Please arrive 10 minutes before the start of the walk, wear flat grippy shoes or trainers, suitable clothing for the weather and bring a bottle of water.
No booking required, for further info contact jo.bennett@scll.co.uk.
