Liverpool Docks Family Wellbeing Trail

Lovely Liverpool! I had never been before so I was really excited to do the trail audit and it didn’t disappoint.

We started our day auditing the trail for Stanley Locks Flights and finished at the Docklands, the conntrast was incredible! It felt like being in New York—soaring buildings, historic museums, and a bustling network of cafes, all along the Mersey River, which is epic.

While the Stanley Flight offers quiet reflection, the Docklands offers energy and excitement. It’s a real testament to how diverse Liverpool’s waterfront is.

Whether you are a local or a visitor, I highly recommend Liverpool’s blue spaces. We are so proud to be working with the Canal & River Trust, funded by the amazing Sport England to open up these wellbeing trails. They are more than just paths; they are places to reset, reconnect, and improve our well-being (literally science says so).

Retrain Your Brain to Look for Joy

Glimmers are the tiny moments of joy, warmth, or connection that are easy to miss — but when you start noticing them, everything changes.

Since I started noticing Glimmers, my whole perspective has shifted. It's a game changer!

Nice to feel valued and supported as an individual. We often miss out our own care in the struggle to set up all the many school and group sessions that we run throughout the year.
