Meet N Walk is a simple format, where people meet at designated times and as a social group complete a chosen walk. The group is led by a Walk Leader who will, organise the walks, do warm ups, stretching, and warm downs, give advice on fitness topics and healthy lifestyle tips. The Walk Leader will also divide the overall group into smaller groups of similar fitness levels from beginners to regular walkers and will set out a schedule suitable for your needs. So whether you’re a regular walker, or want to start your fitness regime by getting back into walking this Meet N Walk is for you .

The Meet N Walk group will meet at three different times during the week, starting Monday the 5th of November. The Monday morning session is ideal for parents dropping their children to school and buggies are also welcome . The Monday & Wednesday evening sessions are more informal and Olive our voluntary leader will be doing warm ups, stretching and warm downs. The evening sessions are aimed at creating a safe walking group so people, evening during the dark evenings, feel encouraged to go for a walk. The dates and times, starting Monday 5th October and Wednesday 7th October, are as follows
• Monday Morning ¦ 9.30 to 10.30am
• Monday Evening ¦6.00 to 7.00pm
