About Active Days

Active Days is a not for profit organisation that organises walks and activities for individuals and groups who cannot easily access the countryside because of health, social or personal circumstances. It seeks to encourage, challenge and enable people from all walks of life to get out and enjoy the beautiful countryside of North West England.

Active days is based in Lancaster & Morecambe and is run by Pete Crutchley who is a qualified mountain leader and has 30 years experience of
 


walking and climbing around the world. He has also worked extensively for mental health services and community adult education.

 


Apart from the enjoyment of walking and being in beautiful locations there is a focus on bulding up fitness, wellbeing and confidence. It's also an excellent way to make new friends, walking and socialising is a big part of it all. There are also ample opportunities to learn about the Natural History, Geology, Local History, Wildlife and Flora.

 

There are walks for all levels of fitness and confidence. We run a programme of  Easy Thursday Walks and a programme of more challenging walks. There are longer wednesday walks for people who need a bit of extra support, and longer friday walks that tend to be more challenging, and are aimed at people who want to improve their fitness & confidence in the outdoors.

Bespoke Activities can also be organised for community groups and organisations. Days out, Outdoor Teambuilding, orienteering and problem solving activities can be provided.

Other Activities are provided on a one off basis. These are usually trips to places of local interest. Please check specials page for the latest updates.

I can also support people on a one to one basis who would like to engage in outdoor activities such as walking, climbing and mountain biking, gardening or most other sports. Please phone or email for more information.

Safe & comfortable transport is provided in an up to date small minibus. The Driver is Midas trained.




All groups are limited to 8 places maximum. This is to ensure safe walking and to keep groups small and friendly.
