Backpack Agreement
Everyone comes to Wellbeing Walks with their own baggage. While we aim to support one another on the walks, it is important that everyone takes responsibility for carrying their own emotional backpack.
Please note: We are not a crisis service and we are not equipped to support people going through acute mental health crises.
We ask everyone coming along to sign up to our ‘Backpack Agreement’.
I agree to :
Take responsibility for my own safety and wellbeing.
Do my part in making the group safe and welcoming to all.
Be mindful when sharing that others are carrying a lot too.
Be respectful that people cope differently, and have different healing journeys.
Refrain from giving advice unless its requested.
Follow the guidance of walk leaders
Acknowledge there are some inherent risks in walking in nature and agree to participate at own risk.
In registering for the walk, I agree to the ‘Backpack Agreement’
