About the Project

The scheme currently has 13 weekly walks taking place in the parks and open spaces across Cardiff. Joint events are held each quarter and a pack of independent walks is proving popular. Walk Leader training takes place on a regular basis for volunteers and also refresher sessions are held for leaders regularly.

A successful Joint Winter Walk took place on 12 December at St Fagans . Over 60 people walked through the grounds to the newly opened St Teilo’s church. Most walkers finished off with some refreshments in the Plymouth Arms atfterwards.

The Cardiff scheme is continuing to grow and is developing successful partnerships with other local organisations.

The next Walk Leader Training Day is likely to be in March or April.
