After researching training for lead

walkers on line, found a course provided by Lancashire Care NHS Foundation Trust.  The facilitator was a Health Improvement Specialist based at Accrington Victoria Community Hospital.  The course was for a full day, and we were given a background to 'Walking For Health', took part in a quiz, discussed motivating walkers and a leaders' roles and responsibilities.  During the afternoon we had sessions on risk assessments and route planning, everyone seemed to find the whole day interesting!

Blog training at Fresh Fields

Blog Training.

Today at Greenspace Chris and Lyndsay came to show us how to blog! It was a very informative session with a very nice, free lunch! We were asked if we were computer literate, what our interests were and then we were given three blog sites to look at. We were asked to note down the content, colours, images, impact and interest of the blog.

We were split into two groups and each group looked at three different blog sites. After a lovely free lunch we were shown how to write, edit and publish a blog post. We were then asked to write a blog post and publish it, which we are doing now.

This is a test image for the blog.
