The Thursday Walking Club meets on the first and third Thursday of the month from 2.00pm to 4.00pm. It offers relaxed walks in local parks and woodland, with plenty of time to chat and enjoy being outdoors.
Locations vary each time, usually around Crowborough and Wadhurst, and each route is chosen so the group can walk together at an easy pace. Walks are no longer than 45 minutes and are planned to suit everyone. Dogs are welcome and often add to the enjoyment.
After the walk, the group usually ends with a cuppa and a slice of cake at a nearby café or picnic bench, which gives people a chance to rest, chat and enjoy each other’s company.
Some people join for the movement. Others come for the fresh air, the conversation or the chance to be with others.
What our members say:
I had been caring for my mother who has Alzheimer’s for four years without any support. By chance I saw a post about the Walking Club. I had no idea what the charity was or how much it would help us. My mum is picked up by Jo, a wonderful volunteer who takes her for a gentle stroll and a cup of tea which she always enjoys. It also gives me a chance to have a break knowing she is out, safe and happy.
