Walking Works Quiz

As mentioned on this blog before the University is involved in an initiative to encourage staff members to walk more, whether it is going to and from University, or getting up in lunchtime and having a stroll to stretch their legs and see the local scenery. Run by the charity Living Streets and supported by the Greater London Authority, Walking Works have been supplying the University with support and ideas to get more staff members walking.

The latest initiative is a walking quiz that can only be won by staff members getting out of the office during the lunchtime break and exploring the local area surrounding the campus. Questions require staff members to explore and pick up answers from local sites of interest. At Greenwich the questions will take you out to Ballast Wharf and up to the Royal Observatory and at Avery Hill you will need to explore the further reaches of the campus and walk across Avery Hill Park to find the answers. My advice to you is to get out there and explore - but before you do write down the questions and take a pad and pen with you - I managed to forget two of the answers before I got round to filling out the quiz!

On to of this there is a £50 voucher to be won, one for Avery Hill Campus and one for Greenwich Campus.

Take part in the quiz by clicking here (staff login required).

You will find Ballast Wharf by heading towards the Power Station at Greenwich

Look out for the first signs of Spring as you walk through Avery Hill Park
