John's walking story

Meet John...

“I find walking is fantastic for both mental and physical health. Being out in nature is great for someone like me, who suffers from anxiety and depression.

I was also diagnosed with type-2 Diabetes about a year ago, but walking has helped me reverse that diagnosis.

I now make videos on YouTube which I hope will inspire people to get out and walk in their local areas, so I couldn’t pass on the chance to be part of The Greater Manchester Way and hopefully inspire even more people to walk.”

Beginning your walking journey can be difficult. And sometimes, having the right support can make all the difference. Find a walking group that perfectly suits you.
