Laura enjoyed running and synchronised swimming. But when she started a family, getting 'that' buzz became difficult. Like many of us, she adapted her lifestyle in order to continue getting outside and to involve all the family. During lockdown, we were all restricted to local walks and this sparked the birth of The Hiking Household and Tikes Hikes - a walking group for parents and their children in Cumbria. Since then, it has grown into a fantastic online resource for family friendly walks in the Lake District.

We chat about how having little ones at home doesn't mean you can't get out to enjoy our great outdoors and Laura shares some great ideas for getting the kids outside and ways to make it fun for them.
