NNAS Silver Navigator Award Paul 'Hi HelenThanks for the training last week, it was excellently delivered, and I enjoyed it tremendously. I learnt a lot and it has taught me to stop relying on the OS app! The Beacons are a fantastic location and an area I must visit more. Please pass on my thanks to Alan as well please' |

Liverpool 'Helen was a fantastic instructor! She gave us real life scenarios to deal with in the studio so we knew how to work around first aid events in the space we had. She gave us a full list of equipment to buy as well as adapted the powerpoint to our needs. She was thorough and her knowledge was impeccable. Would highly recommend Helen for a first aid course!' |

Andrea Harris 'An excellent account Helen and although I only joined the Snowdon day I felt very welcomed and indeed ‘bonded’ with everyone. What a marvellous privilege to be part of the group which you so expertly guided with a ‘light touch’ whilst ensuring every care and attention to detail has been considered. Enjoyable and memorable day adding to the wealth of adventures experienced with Bryn Walking.' |

Bethan Logan Y Bartneriaeth Awyr Agored The Outdoor Partnership 'It was really good, thank you so much! I really enjoyed it and you had great engagement from everyone, I thought you allowed everyone to input with their expertise which I think is what people want ultimately, but there’s not always room for it is there but somehow you managed to do that but also cover all the content, which is loads. I actually think this was my favourite first aid course I’ve done, and I might be on 5 now!' |
Hi Hel.
Bryn Walking provides a service which allows women to join a group of like minded people to explore our beautiful mountains and hills. Taking time out from our busy life when so much is expected from us.
A time to think snd reflect without worrying about getting lost in the hills. That’s all sorted with good leader ship and preparation. Giving advice on clothing if needed. Better clothing enables a more comfortable walking experience.
Women often feel less confidence as they get older and I understand that mountain walking is not something they would venture on their own.
Have enabled participants to explore for themselves day, residential and overseas opportunities for trekking.
1. Feel safe and secure in an, all female group.
2. Able to just be one’s self and not worry about feeling conscious about navigating when on courses.
3 enjoy being part of a group that has no expectations - other than enjoying the guided walks.
4. A huge feeling of success on completing walks- especially receiving the relive later.
5. Have more knowledge of the areas we walk. Taking time to map read and use a compass.
6. Enjoy meeting new people and great networking.
7. Tips and advice on walking clothing from walkers.
8. The walking has enabled my body to heal itself through exercise.
9. I feel so much more confident about myself.
10. My family and Freinds are proud of me.
11. The leader makes me feel safe and secure.
12. Having a calendar of events enables me to plan my busy life to ensure I make time for myself so that I have a work life balance.
13. My health fitness and wellbeing has improved so much more.
14. I never feel judged at all.
15. Having a whole new group of Friends from across a huge area.

Bryn Walking for Women offers a mutually supportive range of walking activities. Women can enjoy short walks designed to get them outdoors and build up to day walks in the mountains. Leader Helen Menhinick definitely likes to safely challenge us all in identifying the lesser used and more remote routes. The sharing of navigational skills and intro days to navigation builds confidence. The group has a unique dynamic in being all female that is instinctively felt across each group of walkers. I have enjoyed forging new friendships with women who have come to love the outdoors and appreciate the camaraderie such a group develops. It is satisfying to see Helen developing her offering to encompass Walking holidays and trekking abroad, both of which have brought new perspectives to my life and no doubt the lives of other female walkers. Thank you Bryn Walking for Women.

Hello Helen
Thank you very much for all the post-course material.
A Big Thank you to you and Alan for delivering an excellent course. With the disparity of experience and knowledge within the group, you successfully managed to attend to everyone’s learning requirements – without ever making me feel like the bottom of the class! Getting to the trig point on the second day felt like a massive “step” in the learning, as I felt the teaching actually sinking in and working in a very real situation (you were the invisible support ever at my side!)
I hope to build on this foundation to get out more independently with confidence, the course covered so much in terms of stepping out on the hills.
I am committing to your wise advice, to get out there in familiar territory to test and practice. I have watched one youtube video as well!
We are so lucky that you took that leap to set up Bryn Walking, and the intro by Alan on the first day was a great summary of your achievements to date, very inspiring.
