Walk & Talk Mental Health Group

The first weeks of January can be hard. Join a gentle, unhurried loop of the park and around the lake with people who understand. Talk as much or as little as you like; walking side by side makes conversation easier than sitting face to face.

Our two walk leaders have mental health first-aid training and will always walk at the pace of the slowest person. The route is mostly on tarmac paths, with a short grassy stretch by the river that can be skipped.

We finish at the café kiosk for a hot drink, but there is no pressure to stay. Dogs on leads welcome. Free, no booking, just turn up at the gate.
