Led Walking Programme

July 2020 Walking Programme

Unfortunately, the Covid- 19 restrictions in Wales do not allow us to publish a programme for July. However, we are considering a walking-based charity project during the month.

The Trustees have been considering how a walk programme can be developed for future months. A Covid-19 assessment has been written that will be used alongside the usual Walk Leader's assessment to  provide a safe walking experience. We are in discussion with Walk Leaders to develop a process to arrange walks but the result may look different to previous programmes.

Please enjoy the rest of the summer.

• You can exercise outdoors as often as you like as long as you observe physical distancing rules and are alone or with members of your household.
• You must continue to stay local and any exercise should start and end at home and not involve going a significant distance from home.
• Many locations remain closed to visitors, including a number of popular beauty spots and visitor sites through wales.

• avoid touching surfaces with your hands, consider wearing gloves.
• consider using alternative routes that do not pass through gardens or farm yards where social distancing may be difficult or the possibility of entering an isolation area.
• consider avoiding popular locations and busy times of day if you can.
