Who is the course aimed at?  Scheme organisers and volunteer walk leaders

What will I learn:   The one day Disability Inclusion Training Course will give you the confidence to focus on ability rather than disability, to communicate effectively and to influence and deliver good practice on your walks.

How do I book on?  This course is for walk leaders who are already involved in a local walking scheme, so your first contact to discuss this course should be with your local walking for health scheme coordinator.  If you are a scheme coordinator or someone who has set up a walking for health project as part of an organisation or community group please contact Caroline Lyon at Scottish Disability Sport on 0131 317 1130 to find out more about offering this course to your volunteers.
