💚Every Life Matters 💚

We are very proud to wish one of our team members, Matt Benson good luck in his fundraiser this Saturday! He will be doing a 5.5km loop around Kendal Castle, every hour for 24 hours. This 5.5km loop is to represent the average of 5 people lost each month to su***de in Cumbria.

Well done Matt! 🏃🏻‍♂️

Exciting times ahead for next year! We’re teaming up Andys Man Club Barrow-in-Furness as well as all AMC groups in a Cumbria, to offer free wellbeing walks throughout 2026.
Starting at North Walney Nature Reserve, and progressively increasing the difficulty and duration, we will be able to overcome everyday challenges through the great outdoors.
However, don’t worry if some of the walks feel overwhelming, on the same dates, we are also offering alternative walks for those that don’t feel ready for the big mountain days such as Scafell Pike and Helvellyn!
This offer is specifically for AMC members/beneficiaries and facilitators.
Please get in touch to register your interest either through messenger or emailing community@tracksanddales.com

Watch this space! ⛰️ ❤️

Mental Health is Movement.

Movement in nature helps quiet the mind and open the heart. Our participants tell us that walking outdoors, climbing, and mindful activity give them the headspace they’ve been missing, and the self-belief to move forward.
Funders, partners, supporters, you’re helping us change lives one step at a time. 👣

Resilience isn’t something you give people, it’s something you help them realise they already have. Our outdoor wellbeing sessions show people that despite anxiety, depression or past trauma, they’ve got the strength to take the next step.
Even a simple guided walk can be a powerful act of recovery. 🌲

A wet and boggy walk at Wetsleddle Reservoir with Every Life Matters, but despite the conditions, we all left with a real sense of accomplishment and achievement! It’s great to have such open conversations about our troubles, and the more we talk about them in amazing places, the easier things hopefully become.

Confidence doesn’t come overnight, but the great outdoors gives it space to grow.

At Tracks&Dales, we help people take small, supported steps outside, and watch their confidence soar. We’re proud to show that with the right setting and support, people rediscover strengths they never knew they had.

Very autumnal scenes on Whitbarrow Scar! You don’t have to go far from home to experience the great outdoors.
It’s great to really help out those that need it, and through referrals from Carnforth & Milnthorpe PCN Wellbeing Hub, we are doing just that! From short group walks to improve wellbeing and social skills, to mountain hikes to give people the independence they need, we can offer it all to help people with their mental health.

A fantastic partnership has started between Tracks&Dales and thewellcommunities_cic !
Our first wellbeing walk was to Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve (during a storm!) with our second walk being in much nicer conditions on Whitbarrow Scar. The group have shown incredible resilience on both walks, and have thoroughly enjoyed their time outdoors.
For those that don’t know, The Well Communities are a CIC based in Cumbria, offering support to people recovering from drug and alcohol addiction through therapy, counselling, peer mentoring and more. They bring together lived experience, professional expertise, and community partnerships to create safe, supportive spaces where people can heal, grow, and reconnect with life.
The Well Communities are incredible!

We LOVE what we do!
Tracks&Dales have recently started a small partnership with Every Life Matters, a Cumbrian su***de prevention and su***de bereavement support charity. They are an incredible charity that is needed so so much in Cumbria!
We offered our services, to support people connected to Every Life Matters through the great outdoors.
Our first walk was in the northern fells, near Carrock Fell and it was great to see everyone out of their comfort zones and end the walk with a real sense of achievement.
We will always be there for those that need it most.

A lovely walk with the NHS’ Primary Care Network for Carnforth & Milnthorpe, at Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve & Hawes Water.
This amazing group have started to do a weekly walk themselves in Arnside, with Tracks&Dales facilitating further walks on a monthly basis in different areas of south Cumbria. These walks have helped develop confidence and independence in the great outdoors.
