Walking: Main🚶♀️
This is a very friendly group and we look forward to welcoming new members. All our walks are based around public transport.
We walk on the first Wednesday of the month. The walks are between 5 and 7 miles using a different leader each month.
A packed lunch is required along with a drink and something to sit on. Walking boots or shoes are recommended together with a waterproof coat.
