Briefing Webinar: How to survey Slow Ways walking routes

During the spring lockdown 700 volunteers drafted a national network of over 7,000 Slow Ways walking routes.

Using existing footpaths, people will be able to use the #SlowWays to walk between neighbouring settlements or combine routes for long distance journeys.

While the first Slow Ways routes have been plotted on maps, we now need to walk, review, survey and verify them all. With over 100,000km to walk, that's a big ambition for 2021 and we are looking for people from across Great Britain to help.

Lots of people will leave simple route reviews on the Slow Ways website. Surveys are more detailed and involve recording obstacles, facilities and challenges on routes.

Join us for this briefing to:

• Learn how to survey a Slow Ways route
• See a walk-through the of new Slow Ways website, routes and maps
• Hear from Dan Raven-Ellison who started the initiative
• Discover other ways you can get involved

The webinar will be held on Zoom and broadcast on YouTube. Places on Zoom will be limited and most people will watch via the YouTube link that we will share before the event.
