These interventions are for adults looking to improve their mental health and in response to feedback from the previous programme we have decided to split the 10 weeks into 2 blocks of 5:
Entry Level – for people with little or no hill walking experience
Dates: Thursday 8 June – 8 July 2023
Challenge Level – for people who are already happy to do 2 to 3 hour walks over sometimes tricky terrain
Dates: Thursday 13 July – 10 August 2023
The idea is that some people will gain confidence during the first 5 weeks and feel happy to move onto the next block but those with existing experience can sign up for the challenge level straight away. Get in touch if you have any questions. Routes will start nice and easy on fairly flat terrain and progress to longer walks as the weeks go on. There is always a chance to stop at a café and teas and coffees are provided. This project is fully funded and there will be waterproofs and boots available to borrow each time if required.
Thursdays 11-3pm from Llandrindod Wells with transport from Newtown available on request.
Please find posters attached and feel free to circulate within your networks. As you can see the first block starts in 4 weeks time so don’t delay, sign up today! Email bethan.logan(at)outdoorpartnership.co.uk to register and find out about next steps.
For some inspiration on the kind of impact these programmes can have on people’s lives, I encourage you to spend 5 minutes watching this film created by Film up High about The Outdoor Partnership’s Opening Doors to the Outdoors programmes in North West Wales:
