Derbyshire Minds's Rookie Runners, part of the Buxton Movers is a 12 week beginner running programme.
The group meets weekly at the Run Hub in Derby Arena. There is access to a car park, toilet and changing room facilities. All sessions are free.
Qualified run leaders lead the group, along with two wellbeing volunteers from Derbyshire Mind. The 12-week programme helps ease you into running and will increase your confidence each week.
After the programme finishes, you can carry on running for a further 12 weeks with Derbyshire Mind volunteers or they can help you find a local running club.
All sessions are open to adults 18+ who are looking to improve their mental wellbeing through being physically active in a supportive and friendly group. Whether your aim is to reduce stress, improve your mood, run a 5K or meet new people. Derbyshire Mind recommends that attendees who sign up for this group can manage a 20 minute brisk walk.
