Join our weekly community walk.
What You'll Do:
About the Walks:
- We have a laid-back community walk on Friday lunchtimes which is open to anyone.
- We meet at 12 at the L'Arche London workshop (9-13 Norwood High Street) and go for a walk around West Norwood cemetery, before coming back to the workshop for a cup of tea and a chat.
- There are normally about 10 people at the walks, a mixture of people with and without learning disabilities.
Role Expectations:
- You would need to be able to walk for about forty minutes.
- Everyone of all ages and abilities is welcome to just rock up and join in!
Why You'll Love It:
- This is a great opportunity to join a fun community and make some new friends.
- If you'd like to do more exercise and get outside more, our community walks are perfect for you.
What You'll Learn:
- This is an experience that will not only boost your CV, but also your confidence, and will grow you as a person.
- Being friends with people with learning disabilities changes the way you see the world.
- You will learn to be more attentive to the world around you and be more open to difference.
- You will learn to communicate more accessibly and there will be chances to have training in sign language.
- You will receive first aid training and a range of other trainings including health and safety and autism awareness.
What We're Looking For:
Don't worry about not being fit enough – we walk slowly in L'Arche London!
No prior experience with people with learning disabilities is necessary.
