Accredited SchemeHaringey: Health in mind - London


Last updated 23 February 2010

‘Walk your way to Health’ - Health Walks Programme 

This is a volunteer-led group walking programme supported by NHS Haringey and Haringey Council for all Haringey residents.
All volunteers have been trained as Walk Leaders and hold appropriate insurance cover.  The programme is part of a national initiative lead by Natural England. It aims to encourage people, particularly those who are the least active, to do regular short walks (30 minutes-45 minutes) within their local community.   The walks are sociable and fun. 
All walks are FREE OF CHARGE and all abilities are catered for.  To access the Scheme patients just turn up at the venue and are asked to complete a brief Health Questionnaire prior to participating on the walk.For more information about the Health Walks programme, contact the ‘Active for Life’ Team on 020 8489-5326.
