to physically active. |

VOLUNTEERS WANTED
CATCH is recruiting local people to become volunteer walk leaders in
their area. Being a CATCH volunteer can be very rewarding with leaders
coming from all "walks of life" and volunteering for personal
reasons of their own, whether it's to make a useful contribution to their
community, do something worthwhile with their free time, or to simply
meet new people.
It's very rewarding helping other people get out and about and increasing
their confidence and fitness (as well as your own!). If you are interested
in participating in any walk or want to try volunteering please contact
the Walking Development Officer.
