A health walk is:

• A safe, friendly and supportive group of walkers

• Led by a trained volunteer

• Less than an hour long

• Includes a gentle warm-up and cool-down

• Boosts physical, mental and social wellbeing

• Takes place weekly, so if you enjoy it, you can come regularly

All ages and abilities are welcome.

Booking

For Walkfest ’24 you can just turn up and join in.

However, if you’re new to Health Walks, please come along 10 minutes early. It will give the walk leader the chance to welcome you and have a chat about what to expect.

Additionally, everyone taking part in a Health Walk must complete a short form. You can get one from your walk leader on the day, or fill in a form online using the link below.
