APEx new walk leaders.

With our members ever keen to boost their abilities three of our walkers have gained a walk leader qualification.

It has been on the table for a while. With APEx membership growing we have been in need of more volunteers with good qualifications that can help us keep our activities going strong. Tuesday gone Paul Carney, Keith Parnell and Matt Williams all went out to the Liverpool PCT to take part in an excellent walk leaders qualification. After a nice walk through the streets of Liverpool and some excellent classroom tuition all of use came away with a certificate making us walk leaders.

So whats next. There have been some ideas bounced around about walking and I have got a couple myself. Hopefully we are going to look at linking in with exisitng Advocacy in Wirral projects to get a lot of walking groups going and really help to get people on the right path to meeting their 30 minutes of exercise a day five days a week.
