British Sign Language Health Walks in Lanarkshire

Share this

Members of the Deaf community in Lanarkshire are enjoying local Health Walks thanks to an innovative new project.

Path for All have supported a new venture by Get Walking Lanarkshire and Deaf Services Lanarkshire to offer walks that are led by trained Deaf Walk Leaders.

This means that, for the first time, Deaf walkers and Walk Leaders can communicate with each other, making the walks safer, more accessible and more social.

The first walk was held at Strathclyde Country Park.
