FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where do WALK TO:TALK events take place?
Our walks are held within the very communities where we aim to start a conversation around mental health, typically consisting of a walk around the city. In May and September 2019, we held walks around Bristol, taking in many of its famous landmarks, with the purpose of starting a conversation on mental health for Bristol students and the wider community.
Who runs the WALK TO:TALK events?
Walk To: Talk events are run by committed teams of volunteers who are based within the communities where the walks take place. If you are interested in holding a Walk To: Talk event in your university city, please visit our Volunteer Now page.
How long are the walks?
Walk To: Talk events vary in their length and are dependent on the city that they take place in and the preferences of those who organise them. As a guide, our walk in Bristol in September 2019 was 8km long. However, we aim to make our events accessible to all levels of fitness and so we encourage everyone to join our events and contribute to the conversation on mental health and mental fitness.
What is required of volunteers?
Volunteers help to marshall the events and keep everyone safe, meaning they are an essential part of the Walk To: Talk team! a short training session is provided to volunteers ahead of events, so all that is required of volunteers is enthusiasm and the drive to participate in the conversation on mental health.
