Thank you to all those who filled in the Survey during August.
Unfortunately Health Walks are still suspended.
However, the Government restrictions on smaller gatherings do not apply to exercise and so we are working towards restarting walks in early October.

Leaders
We have have a pool of 40 trained leaders. However not all are 'active' as some are 'indisposed' for various reasons. We are always on the lookout for more leaders, or back up leaders (who do not need formal training to make a difference). Get in touch with Bernard if you would like to find out more about being a leader.
There is no need for regular commitment or to be a main leader, you will be just as welcome to become a back up leader.
