NEW participants are invited to a series of health walks taking place across Moray.

The outings, which range from 10 minutes to an hour, are led by trained Paths For All volunteers and are a fun and social way to exercise and meet new people.

Moray Health Walk co-ordinator Claire Buchanan said: "Anyone can come along on a health walk – new faces are always welcome."

A number of health walks take place across Moray and new participants are welcome to attend.
