This #MentalHealthWeek our fantastic Coast Path Connectors Project Manager, Alex, takes the opportunity to outline some of the amazing health and wellbeing benefits of the National Lottery Heritage funded Coast Path Connectors Project.
In the first of this blog series on solo hiking, we explore the motivation behind solo journeys and relate them to experiences on the South West Coast Path.
With the summer fading fast, many of us are embracing the cold water swimming trend, even if only for a quick dip. The benefits of cold water swimming are well reported and with the coast path providing access to miles of beaches, coves, and sea pools, we thought we’d share some top tips and safety advice for when you’re next taking the plunge.

Thanks to funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, the South West Coast Path Association has recently launched an exciting new Coast Path Connectors project that aims to open up coastal walking to a range of new audiences. This project will help improve equity of access along the South West Coast Path by supporting local people in making the most of our amazing trail, for their health and well-being, through a network of new volunteers.
May 9th -15th is Mental Health Awareness Week, hosted by the Mental Health Foundation, and is an invaluable opportunity for people to talk about all aspects of mental health.
