Join our Slow Ways Journey!!!
I thought I'd give a little bit of a heads up about the charities we'll be supporting as well as the team before setting out on our adventure on Sunday. To kick things off I thought I'd give you a little bit of background info on the Slow Ways...
What is Slow Ways?
Slow Ways is a nationwide project with the inspiring goal of creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Great Britain’s towns and cities. Their mission is to encourage more people to walk and discover the beauty and benefits of slower travel. By promoting walking, Slow Ways aims to improve health, well-being, and our connection to the natural world, while reducing our carbon footprint.
Why Are We Supporting Slow Ways?
Anybody that knows me, knows I love to be outside, no matter the weather, being out and about is the best! As a passionate advocate for outdoor activities and the incredible benefits they bring, supporting Slow Ways aligns perfectly with my values. Walking not only boosts physical health but also enhances mental well-being and fosters a deeper appreciation for our environment.
How You Can Get Involved?
1. Get out and about!
Slow Ways is aiming to build a national network of verified routes. If you fancy getting out and about and enjoying some fresh air, check out their routes and see if you can complete a walk and verify a route so others can also enjoy it in the future!
2. Spread the Word!
Share our posts and tell your friends and family about Slow Ways. Awareness is key to growing this movement.
3. Donate!
If you want to support Slow Ways directly, consider donating to support developing and maintaining these routes. Your contribution will help make walking accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
I'm hoping that our challenge will build awareness and participation in the Slow Ways. By joining me, you’ll not only support a great cause but also experience the joy of exploring our beautiful country on foot. Let's come together to promote a healthier, greener, and more connected future.
Up next I'll be giving you some of the lowdown on Midshires Search & Rescue, before introducing the challenge team!
Please remember to like and share my posts and if you're able to make a donation you can do this by the Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/page/gerry-moss-midshires-slow-ways?utm_medium=fundraising&utm_content=page%2Fgerry-moss-midshires-slow-ways&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=pfp-share
