Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Total volume of accelerometer assessed physical activity (measured by activity counts per minute) at 12 months	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Accelerometer measured walking will be collected using the step count function of the GeneActive wrist-worn device. Participants will wear the device continuously for a 7-day period at baseline, 10 weeks, 6 months and 12 months 2. Self-reported walking measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) administered at baseline, 10 weeks, 6 months and 12 months 3. Physical and mental health measured using the Euroqual EQ-5D-5L administered at baseline, 10 weeks, 6 months and 12 months 4. Wellbeing measured using ICECAP-A, administered at baseline, 10 weeks, 6 months and 12 months 5. Social connectedness will be measured using the UCLA Loneliness Scale, administered at baseline, 10 weeks, 6 months and 12 months 6. Ability to collect these outcome measures from participants at multiple time points, and to recruit organisations and target groups successfully: 6.1. Recruit organisations to the evaluation 6.2. Recruit the target group to take part in the evaluation 6.3. Collect data on the number of walks delivered 6.4. Monitor the number of walks attended by each participant 6.5.
