West Lothian Disabled Ramblers seek committee members
West Lothian Disabled Ramblers are looking for able-bodied people to assist as general committee members as well as a treasurer. Committee meetings are held monthly. Contact Donald Buchanan 01506-431422.
West Lothian Disabled Rambler’s aim is to foster self-reliance and to encourage responsibility for oneself while respecting the country code and having fun. Organising and running rambles allows disabled people access to the countryside. They run twelve Rambles per year, April to October, to various venues throughout Scotland. They have a small fleet of electric scooters (17) for people with walking difficulties. They also have many ambulant disabled members e.g. visually impaired people, people with learning difficulties, etc.
This is a useful organisation to know about, if you want to get out more but are hampered by mobility problems.
