Walk Leader ~ Nick
Nick is a qualified Lowland Leader & he’s also qualified in First Aid for Mental Health & Outdoor First Aid – so you know he’ll keep you safe and make your Wellness Walk a safe and supportive space.
Nick has a passion for walking and is out most days with his beautiful husky, Sheba. As a former Mental Health nurse he is a huge advocate of just how beneficial time spent in nature can be for people’s wellbeing.
Nick tells us his favourite local walk is through the woods and lanes of the area where he lives, but his favourite walk anywhere is up onto Pendle Hill from the nick of Pendle. His top tip is to put a single knot into his boot laces before fastening them – something he might share how to do when you join him on a Wellness Walk.
