Community Walking Leader Training
As part of the Let’s Get Kerry Walking Campaign, the Irish Heart Foundation Community Walking Leader Training was delivered at the end of February 2012. Attached is a photo of all the Walking Leaders who participated in the training. These voluntary leaders are currently working on establishing walking groups/initiatives within their communities, all in an effort of getting more people walking more! Over the coming months our local newspaper, Kerrys Eye, will be featuring these group. These volunteers are doing GREAT work within their communities.
The following are some comments from the course participants:
“I just had to write to you about the Community Walking Leader course that I completed…it was absolutely spot on!! It was so interesting, covering everything that you could think of to do with walking- and things that you would never think of!” ”Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to do the course and I really do think that everything I learned was appropriate for our club- it was so user friendly, I cant praise it enough!!” “Thank you for giving me the opportunity to take part in such a wonderful course” “Really enjoyed the weekend training, very informative”
