Walking for Fitness
Council in association with the Heart Foundation, is launching a ‘Walking for Fitness’ program - a network of free community based walking groups.
The walks are 30 - 60 minutes long, depending on the preferences of the groups. They are run by volunteers from the community and everyone is welcome to join in.
