🚶‍♂️ First Channelside Walk – what a great start! 🚶‍♀️
It was brilliant to get out together and make the most of this beautiful route , despite the wind and rain.
We clocked up plenty of steps, giving our step counts a healthy boost for the day!
If you fancy getting some fresh air, a good chat, and an easy way to be more active, we’d love to see more people join us on future walks. Come along, bring a friend, and give it a go – everyone’s welcome! 😊

Stepping away from the desk and into the fresh air, we proudly hosted a wellbeing walk with staff from Furness College for their Health and Wellbeing Day.
More than 30 staff members joined us for a walk around the slag banks in Barrow, making the most of a beautiful sunny day. It was fantastic to see so many people getting active, boosting their step counts, and enjoying plenty of good chat along the way.
The walk was a great opportunity to showcase the beauty of Barrow’s coastline, with stunning views and plenty of sea bird wildlife to enjoy.
It was brilliant to see such a strong turnout — a big thank you to everyone who took part!
