Their activities, events and training programmes are designed to motivate, build team spirit and give all those who attend a sense of achievement and well-being. Steve joins me today, to talk about Outdoor First Aid and why this is such a vital skill for us all to learn.Steve highlighted the importance of being well prepared before heading out of a long walk.  Do take a listen to episode 28 in which Mike Parsons explains the different types of outdoor kit that is necessary for staying warm, safe and dry; and also to episode 37, in which Nicky Sproson talks about the importance of learning basic navigation skills. Stay safe out there. He also mentioned the Bristol Nordic Walking group, who recently attended one of his training sessions.Find An Instructor Near Youhttps://britishnordicwalking.org.uk/apps/store-locatorIf you have enjoyed this podcast, I would be very grateful if you could show your support by buying me a coffee!  This enables me to continue producing these podcasts, as it will go towards covering the server and podcast platform licenses.   Not only is Nordic Walking a whole body workout, but it is also one of the safest and most sociable way to exercise.  Classes always finish up in a cafe enjoying a coffee together.
