Thank you to everyone who follows and supports East Lothian Ramblers and Hillwalkers.
As many of you know, we lead a walk every Sunday and share the walk details on our page the week beforehand. Over the past few months, interest in our walks has grown enormously. It’s been fantastic to welcome so many new faces — but the increasing group sizes are beginning to put pressure on some of our leaders.
We’d like to offer more walks to help spread out the numbers, but at the moment we simply don’t have enough trained leaders to do that comfortably.
Our weekly Facebook posts have clearly helped raise our profile, but they’re also attracting more walkers than we can currently manage. With that in mind, we’ve decided to pause posting our weekly walk details on Facebook for the time being. This will give us the chance to train more of our regular walkers to become leaders. Once we have a larger team, we’ll be able to offer more walks, reduce group sizes, and make things easier and more enjoyable for everyone leading.
At that point, we can start sharing our walks on Facebook again.
Thank you for your understanding — and for being part of our growing community.
