We provide a timetable of different monthly walks at the beginning of each year so you can plan around them. We have accredited and experienced walk leaders who identify walks and carry out a risk assessment prior to drawing up the timetable.
Minibuses transport the walkers to the starting point and return them at the end of the walk to our centre. The walking club is now in its fourth year and the monthly Friday morning walking trips have become a firm and established favourite. During the spring or summer we have a full day out.
