I am inviting two groups of people to take part in confidential online interviews: Older adults (65+) who currently play walking sports. Stakeholders (18+) including coaches, facilitators, and programme organisers who help deliver or manage walking sports for older adults. Your insights will help contribute to emerging literature that may inform the future design of inclusive and sustainable walking sports initiatives across the UK. If you are interested or know someone who may be, please contact me (Pippa Jones) by email: pj24691@essex.ac.uk
