In Leicestershire we have just started offering Waterways Well-being activities. We’re working in partnership with the Canal and River trust to hold socially prescribed canoe, paddle board and walking sessions in South Leicestershire. These session aim to give people who are feeling stressed, anxious or social isolated the opportunity to enjoy some ‘me’ time, whilst relaxing and talking to like minded people along our beautiful canals and rivers.
Canal side walks
Do you want to get outside and be more active?
The Canal and River Trust’s walks are delivering free, guided canal side river walks. They are an easy way to be active and to socialise. Walks are a gentle pace, suitable for anyone who has a basic level of fitness. Walks last around 60 minutes.
