Thank you to everyone who joined us in Prescot last night, on the eve of , for our 'Walking for Wellbeing with William Wordsworth in the Morecambe Bay Area' film screening.

Hosted by our Trek Therapy team and Professor Simon Bainbridge we had a wonderful evening at the Shakespeare North Playhouse.

The theme of our film, produced by HopegillMedia, highlighted the benefits of walking in nature for our physical and mental health. Something that was a central reference in the works of William Wordsworth and other romantic poets.

This has been a fantastic project to have been involved in partnership with Lancaster University and Wordsworth Grasmere which engaged more than 200 participants over four scheduled walks during the summer of 2025.

We look forward to future walking adventures and positive collaborations.

Thanks also to The National Lottery Community Fund for their ongoing support.

Throwback to this time last week which saw walk with 29 people as part of the YHA England and Wales programme and the social walk event s. Our walk had a focus on health and well-being and community connection.

We had a fantastic time with a fabulous group of people. We enjoyed a bright and glorious day with the sun shining down on us all as we traversed the Liverpool waterfront finishing at the iconic pier head and the three graces before concluding our day with coffee and cakes back at the YHA Liverpool Albert Dock.

Thank you to everyone who attended and of course all our Trek Therapy team and not forgetting our partners and supporters who help to make our activities possible.
