Informal Walking Champions

Walking informally is keeping us healthy, can you help spread the word and join the movement?


Filmed throughout 2020 during various stages of COVID restrictions and lockdowns, a short video for those who love walking and want to inspire others to walk.


Walking is natural, we’ve always done it and during lockdown periods it has been a lifeline for many people. It has helped people physically, mentally and socially. 

Throughout these very difficult periods it has been highlighted just how easy, safe and accessible walking can be to improve and maintain our health and wellbeing. 

When we are unable to go to sport & leisure centres, cinemas, shops & restaurants, walking has been an activity most people have been able to do, and people have been encouraged to take up walking from home because of the many health benefits. 

During recent times more people have become to realise how important something as simple as walking can be. 


UProjects have been supported by GM Walking to develop resources to help people share their passion for walking and encourage others to join them.
Walking with an organised group is great but you can walk informally at any time with others to fit in with your daily routine.
So, If you love walking and want to share your passion with others, why not visit the GM Walking website? There you will find out what help is available, including free short online workshops, downloadable leaflets and short case study videos from Walking Champions like you!
