✋Volunteers Needed

🚶‍➡️🚶‍♀️‍➡️Following the incredible success of the weekly Wellbeing Walks at Newquay Zoo and the Boating Lake, our Social Prescribing Team are looking to recruit some more Walk Leaders to expand their team of volunteers. They have two walks taking place each week, both start at 9.45 and run on Mondays and Fridays. They last around 1 hour and are aimed at people of all abilities. They are fun, social walks that provide an opportunity to get out and about in Newquay, meet new people and spend time in nature.

💻All training is provided by the Ramblers Association and entails some online learning (3 hours approx.) and a couple of hours at a face to face session. We can also provide first aid training for those interested, and it's all free!

📆You don't need to commit to walking every week, but any time you can give would be greatly appreciated.

📲If you would like to find out more, please contact Emma from our Social Prescribing Team 07746 297507 or join us for a walk.
