LEAD WALKER TRAINING.
Monday 22nd October 2012.
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!
