All groups are where possible suitable for wheelchair users and pushchairs. Please contact in advance to check the suitability of the walk.

All Walking groups will meet before hand for refreshments and there will be a chance to ask the Walk Leader any questions that you may have regarding the walk.

Walking for Health is a great way to be more active and to meet new people in the local area. All of our groups are lead by a suitably trained Walk Leader.
