About the training
The Volunteer Walk Leader course is a one-day course for anyone willing and able to lead
walks in the community. It is a day of practical advice and includes practice in leading a walk
and information on keeping people motivated.
What you will need for the training day
Suitable clothing and footwear – you will be taking part in a short demonstration health
walk. Refreshments will be provided. Please bring your own lunch; or there is a café
available to purchase from. Parking charges apply, for a discounted rate visit the Leisure
centre reception.
What’s expected of you after the training?
Walk leaders receive training so that they can go on to lead walks with Charnwood’s
Walking for Health scheme. Charnwood’s scheme coordinator will help to arrange for you
to start leading walks. By attending the training, it is expected that you will lead at least one
walk for Charnwood’s Walking for Health scheme.
