For all walks, please make sure you have decent footwear (especially when it’s been wet) and suitable clothing: all walks will go ahead unless the weather is really bad (we’ve cancelled just one walk in the last 6 years) but do check if you’re in any doubt or want more information. If conditions necessitate the route of walks may need to change at short notice.
We will start at 13:30 with a 4¼ mile walk Commencing from Church House (bottom of Church Street). It will take in South Green, Dumpling Green and Greens Road.
The walk will be led at a reasonable pace - we do not rush, but we do need to make progress for the group as a whole; if you have any questions about our speed, please raise them with us. You should come with decent footwear (especially when it’s been wet) and suitable clothing.
On return, there will be light refreshments in Church House where we will conduct our Annual Public Meeting - please come along and let us know what you think of what we’ve been doing and offer your thoughts on what we should be doing for the future. In order to get the refreshments right, it would be helpful if you can let us know if you plan to join us.
Join us for a leisurely short walk of no more than 4 miles. There’s no need to book, just turn up.
Next short walk is Friday 3 May
starting 10:15 from Town Centre
After the walk we may go to a local café for hot drinks and/or lunch at the end. If this option appeals to you please come prepared with a bit of available time and money.
As a short walk, there is not a programmed refreshment stop, but there are usually a number of short halts for people to collect and catch breath.
The walk will be led at a reasonable pace - we do not rush, but we do need to make progress for the group as a whole; if you have any questions about our speed, please raise them with us. If you would like a slower pace maybe try our 'Easy Tuesday Walks'.
See a report from our March and April short walks.
Join us on the second Tuesday of the month for a walk no more than two miles and on good and even surfaces: we will make it clear in the email if this is not the case. The pace will be steady with regular pauses to catch our breath.
Afterwards there will be an opportunity to have some refreshments at a nearby hotel/cafe (bring your purse).
The next walk will be on 14 May.
Meet at 10:00 outside Dads-and-Lads
(near the entrance of Cherry Tree car park)
Please note that if you need personal support in order to take part, you will need to arrange this yourself; we regret that we are unable to provide it for you.
Walks plan 2024, this is the initial plan so subject to change. As time goes by you will be able to see how the walks went on our Event History page
