Henley-on-Thames recognised as a walking destination
Watch Mel Bloor's full report below
Our Active Autumn series is encouraging everyone to get out and about to improve our health and well-being.
Henley-on-Thames is known throughout the world for its rowing, but now it is hoping to become a destination for walkers.
The town has just been accredited as a Walkers Are Welcome Town.
It is a national initiative formed 11 years ago in 2007 to encourage people to walk more.
It now has around 100 different towns in England, Wales and Scotland.
Henley-on-Thames is the second town in Oxfordshire, alongside Charlbury, to achieve the status.
To become a Walkers Are Welcome Town, the area should put initiatives in place such as making B&Bs, pubs, hotels and restaurants walker friendly.
Businesses in Henley-on-Thames are being asked to provide muddy boot covers and drying facilities for wet clothes.
Footpaths will also have to be well maintained.
