A new community health project called Let’s Walk – Bootle officially begins today, 3 March 2026, offering free guided walks for residents in Bootle, Merseyside. Starting at 10:30 AM, the weekly walks help people get active and meet their neighbours in a relaxed outdoor setting.
The walks take place along the town’s canal and riverside paths, following the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. These sessions are led by trained guides and move at a gentle pace, making them suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels.
The program is a joint effort between Active Sefton and the Canal & River Trust. Organisers also work with The Life Rooms to help more residents improve their physical and mental wellbeing.
Every walk is designed to be a short, easy trip that can fit into a busy daily routine. Participants meet at Bootle Library on Stanley Road before heading out on the water-side routes.
By providing leader-led sessions, the initiative ensures that everyone can enjoy the local scenery in a safe and supportive environment. The walks are free to attend and offer a simple way for the community to stay connected while getting some fresh air.
