A day off today so I took the time to complete another qualifying walk towards my Lowland Leader Award.
A wet but enjoyable walk in the Ribble Valley visiting Ribchester and Hurst Green.

Much better weather for day 2 of Lowland Leader Award training.
Thanks to Stuart Gorman of Ullswater Outdoors for his guidance for the past 2 days👍
