Filling the sitter gap on your own hours

Standish, Aspull and Orrell lead bookings in a town with very light sitter coverage, so the work is spread across far fewer walkers than in Manchester itself. Haigh Woodland Park sits beside Aspull and takes group walks comfortably. Commuters heading into Manchester book the midday visit, the hours a school-run parent already has free.
