Health walks held for residents

People living in a Gloucestershire town are taking part in "health walks", promoted by the borough council.

The three 30 to 40-minute walks have been arranged by Cheltenham Borough Council to help promote better fitness levels in Cheltenham.

"Those taking part will be offered a voucher for a free drink which can be used before or after the walk," said a council spokesman.

The walks are part of the national Walking the Way to Health initiative.

The Walk Well walks all take place on Saturday and start at 1030 BST 1130 BST and 1230 BST. They each start from the Gloucestershire town's leisure centre.
