Working in partnership with 𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐚 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 we are looking at introducing a new walk to our current programme, ‘𝑴𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒑𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝑾𝑨𝑳𝑿’ 𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑪𝑩𝑻 💚

Walks will be led by Sharon, a qualified female WALX Leader, and Jodie, a qualified female Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and we are keen to understand if there is an interest in this kind of walk 🤔

We will be hosting a free Discovery Session 🔎 on Saturday 18 April 2026 where we will introduce the programme and how we plan to weave cognitive behavioural therapy into the walk along with an understanding of the wider benefits of walking, being outdoors and the creation of a community with others who are facing similar experiences

To gauge the level of interest and to help us plan accordingly, please could you click on the link and complete the questionnaire.
