Overview

If you have ever considered leading a walk then this is the event for you!

Leading a walk is a fantastic way to contribute to Capital Walkers. Whilst it may be a daunting thought to lead a walk, we are here to assist you every step of the way.

Join us for a training evening of Walk Leader preparation which begins with a short walk (details to follow) to demonstrate recording a walk on a digital mapping app. The main training will begin at 7pm for those who are unable to join us for the walk.

We shall unpack the steps to leading walks including how to choose a walk, recce walks and how to get your walk onto our program. Navigation skills are not included in this session, however we will discuss apps such as Ordinance Survey and Outdoor Active briefly. For those who are looking to increase their navigation skills there are courses available.

There will be time to have all your questions answered by experienced walk leaders.

Booking is required for this event

Please RSVP by 10 April if you wish to attend to walkleading@capitalwalkers.org.uk

Further details including the location will be confirmed for those who register.

A follow up event is being held on 18 May for those who would like to participate in a recce walk.
