Ramblers Scotland asking people to get into Get Outdoors Weekend
ByRichard Burdge
The weekend is encouraging people to get out into the fresh air.
Ramblers Scotland is calling on the people of Perth and Kinross to follow the inspiration of the Commonwealth Games and make a pledge to get active outdoors next month.
The first Get Outdoors Weekend on August 9 and 10 aims to help everyone in Scotland discover the fun of getting active.
Jeannie Cranfield, games legacy advisor for Ramblers Scotland, said: “We’re having a great summer of sport this year, with the excitement of the World Cup, Wimbledon, the Tour de France in Yorkshire and the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, but the fact is that most of us will only be taking part from the comfort of our sofas.
“We want people to be inspired by these events and to think about how they could be more active themselves.”
