June 2006

In support of the Walk Leader at the PCT, I've continued with a number of walks which I started last month but I've also done a lot more as well.
I've also been doing a lot of work on my research project which is kind of hard, as it is difficult to get hold of people and ask them about groups which are already running within the area. I intend to do a lot of contacting people next month.

I got maps of the whole of the Highfield area of Keighley from the internet and then tried to zoom in, so I ended up with a map of most of the streets within the Highfield area. I used this to map the community centres, school and shops, which I then number coded on the map.

My next task is to phone the community centres and schools etc and ask if they are already running any physical activity groups. I will also need to do some research within the community - this will involve asking the local people questions about the barriers to physical activity.
