Good luck to both Andrew Farrell and Mark Cordell who are cycling to Brighton from London to raise money for Breast Cancer Now, this Sunday. Keep hydrated guys and hope the front wheels cream doesn’t melt. You can donate here to help ‘motivate’ them… https://www.justgiving.com/page/andrew-farrell-l2b?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

As we prepare to start in Exeter, I think it is worth remembering that many people that struggle with weight loss, also suffer from depression, anxiety and other mental issues.

With this in mind we would like to share some information about Andys Man Club Exeter Andys Man Club.

These communities are for men who feel that life is becoming unbearable; are totally free and meet Monday evenings around the country.

They are hosting a walk and talk session open to all (for free) on Saturday 4th of July from 1pm across the country. Andys Man Club Exeter will be meeting at The Riverside Cafe, The Antique Centre on the Quay, 2 The Quay, Exeter. No booking necessary, just rock up, walk and talk.

Walk and Weigh will be launching in Exeter soon! Its very first location!

It is a program that is designed to help overweight people become active again through walking based sports and activities. It will welcome all, no matter how good at sports you are.

We will be looking to start fully inclusive weekly sessions for both walking mixed football and netball to start; along with some social walks to help build our community.

If this sounds like it may be something you'd like to get involved with please follow the Walk and Weigh page.

So the journey begins in earnest.

Today we have began the 'official paperwork' as well as coming up with a few idea's for our logo.

I am really thankful for finding 'The Fundable CIC', a book by Zion Oshiobugie which is turning out to be the holy grail of knowledge, advice and tips which is going to be my go to guide over the months ahead.

I'm ready for the long 'slog' ahead; and really looking forward to bringing Walk and Weigh to fruition.

PLEASE CAN YOU HELP BY SHARING THIS POST? (And possibly liking and following the page).

I would like to thank Greg Manley (Beacon Wanderers), for some help and advice he has given me recently involving social media and transparency of this program.

As such I am changing this site to a generic site that will publicise what Walk and Weigh (as a whole) is trying to achieve, which is:

* creating a community of people who need or wish to lose weight, in a non-competitive way.
* offer walking sports and activities which will help encourage larger people to start or increase their activity with people of a similar mind set or stature.
* offer training around issues that will help its members lose weight.
* to keep the program as cost effective as possible and charge no more than £10 a month for membership (with some funded free spaces for those that can’t afford it).
* start it’s first program in Exeter to trial the concept and see what type of engagement with the local community it gets.
* create a not for profit company (CIC) to oversee its activities and hopefully grow its reach so it can help more people.

There will be another page created for members of the program in each location so that engagement and communication within its local community can be fostered and encouraged.

As I requested above, please like and share this post so we can start building an audience for the program. 👍🤙
