Tilehurst Together is a new group based in Tilehurst, which aims to support people who are feeling isolated or lonely. Part of the group programme will be fortnightly walks, to be in Tilehurst, specifically the Norcot area. These will be gentle, short walks, for people of all ablities, meeting on Monday mornings on a fortnightly basis.
We are looking for volunteer walk leaders to support members of Tilehurst Together during these walks. Volunteer walk leaders will be supported by the Tilehurst Together Project Co-ordinator.
