Wellness Walk Volunteer Training

Back out with our first batch of trainees - couldn't have asked for a better bunch.
Sat in the cafe first thing it was simply horrid... But lots of laughter is one of the best encouragement tools there is.... So after coffee number three we decided we'd go anyway.
First stop gave us some views of rain sweeping up the lake, but less than an hour later we were having lunch in the sun and the wafer proofs were packed away for the day.
It may not seem spectacular, but a circumnavigation of Derwentwater is one of the Lake District's best low level walks. We talked about motivational techniques, physical and emotional safety and a lot lot more. The laughter and bonhomie continued all day. I'll be really happy have these guys deliver walks in our (& others) name.
