UCAN is looking for volunteers who would be happy to walk with Beneficiaries in one of two roles:
1) Become a Walking Buddy – involves walking on a one-to-one basis with a Beneficiary. The walking time, length of walk and route is up to the Volunteer and Beneficiary to arrange together. Some Beneficiaries simply wish for a gentle walk around their block, whilst others may like a longer route.
2) Lead a Walking Group – involves meeting at a particular point and time with a group of residents who would like to walk in a group for a set time (around an hour). This may be a weekly or fortnightly activity.
Beneficiaries may be:
vulnerable people;
people who feel anxious about going out alone;
people who are new to the area who would like to be shown where to walk.
If you would like to join us walking on either of these roles, please let us know!
