WALKABOUT Wrexham has launched its new badge incentive scheme to walkers.

Hannah Jones, co-ordinator, said: 'There are three different levels of badges - bronze, silver and gold. Walkers must walk 25 miles to gain the bronze, 50 for the silver and 100 miles for the gold badge. This is a great incentive for individuals to achieve their own personal goals and will help to motivate them to walk more on a regular basis.'

Walkabout Wrexham currently runs a programme of 12 weekly walks in the Wrexham area which are led by qualified Walking the Way to Health walk leaders.

Groundwork Wrexham & Flintshire will be running a walk leaders' training course on Tuesday, April 5. Anyone interested can contact Hannah Jones at Groundwork Wrexham & Flintshire.
