What a way to start October 🍂🧡 We had the most beautiful morning walking around Fawley together in the autumn sunshine. Our route was the perfect combination of autumn gorgeousness, with dewy grass and sweet chestnuts, herds of deer hiding in the woods, interesting footpaths dotted with railway artefacts, sweeping green vistas with horses and donkeys and awesome views. Thank you to Phil at Oaken Grove Vineyard for sharing your magical terrace and the vines with us for coffee and cakes afterwards. This walk is a Walk Works firm favourite for a reason ☺️ (Many reasons, actually!!) It was fantastic to welcome so many new people and also to catch up with old friends.

Last week, Walk Works were delighted to host a team of Reading solicitors and their clients in an afternoon of w**e tasting, walking and wonder.

We met the owners of boutique Henley vineyards, Oaken Grove Vineyard and Fairmile Vineyard, who welcomed us into their family run establishments and shared their knowledge and passion of the English w**e scene. We ate a wholesome and delicious lunch while sitting on the terrace overlooking the vines, and were delighted by the peace, the changing skies above us, the trees in the distance and the comical chickens and friendly vineyard cats at our feet.

We walked leisurely for an hour and a half, pausing along the way for snippets of information on the local history of the landscape, and nature appreciation. We read out a poem under an ancient oak tree to allow everyone to engage in the present, enjoy the views and embrace in the calm of the moment. We learned about Ironhenge, saw interesting railway memorabillia, giant sequoia trees, many species of deer, two scruffy emus and the most incredible views.

Really great things happen when you allow yourself the time to step away from the office and the everyday aspects of work. There is something so magical about just being outside, walking side by side, being out in the elements and reflecting on the natural world all around you.

Our team had a thoroughly enjoyable time together. The afternoon was incredibly relaxed and a lot of fun. The perfect mid-week reset.

Who knew that something as simple as a walk could offer up so much wonder.

If you want to treat your team or your clients to a Walk Works experience, just send us a DM to start planning :)

Feeling happy and pretty accomplished 🥾⛰️🏞️ after an absolute belter of a Walk Works walk this morning. It was a glorious September morning - perfect conditions for walking (hiking!) - sunshine, clear skies with a cool breeze. It was the unbelievable views (ok, along with the hills) that really took our breath away. Exhilarating!
Thank you to Goring & Streatley Golf Club for welcoming us with refreshments at the club house. We definitely earned it!
