About this opportunity

As part of Greener Kirkcaldy’s Communities Connected Project, they are looking for volunteer walk leaders. Their walks inspire people to reduce their carbon emissions by driving less and walking more, and are easy and sociable. Walk leaders lead and support short walks in the Kirkcaldy area to encourage people to come together and keep active. A small amount of preparation is sometimes required for the walk, alongside the Sessional Walk Leader.

If you can give around two hours per month, enjoy walking, and would like to help people to explore the Kirkcaldy area, this could be the role for you.
