Nordic Ambling with Alison Clark
Show Notes

Today I’m talking to Alison Clark from Nottingham.  After a career in nursing, Alison qualified as a Nordic Walking Instructor in August 2017, and works as a volunteer instructor with British Nordic Walking. Projects have introduced her to the needs of a range of people who might feel challenged by a fast paced walk in a group of people they perceive as fitter than them.  She realised that many people find the idea of a ‘workout’ walk  too daunting and intimidating.. Her experience of walking with people with a range of health conditions helped her identify the need for someone to offer a Nordic Walk which takes things at a slower pace.
