Coast Path Connectors Plymouth
“Hi, I’m Gemma, I engage with the Plymouth community to ensure local residents can enjoy walking on the Coast Path. My responsibilities include identifying and addressing current barriers and challenges, organising walking groups tailored to various interests and abilities, and managing a dedicated team of volunteers who serve as walk leaders.”
Community organisations we work with:
The below video introduces you to Gemma (Community Engagement - Plymouth) and one of our previous project partners – the University of Plymouth’s student wellbeing team. Watch the group as they walk around the coast near Wembury, on the outskirts of Plymouth, to get an idea of the sorts of walks we deliver. We initially lead walks with university students for a year, and after this, we trained their staff so that they can continue to take groups out to discover the beautiful Coast Path into the future.

Accessibility
Each walk has been planned to be appropriate for the walking group and participants’ needs. We will always let participants know where the nearest toilets are, the terrain, steepness, steps on route, and distance. We aim to make our walks as accessible as we can. Please do get in contact if you need further information before the walk, to check that it is suitable for your individual needs.
