More members are joining us on our walks because we are out in the fresh air and not in a confined space. It’s good to get those muscles working again. Come and join us!

See below for reports of our recent walks.

The group is a long-established very relaxed group that meets on the last Wednesday of each month for a stroll of approximately 3 to 4 miles. We normally finish our walk with a well-deserved lunch at a pub or café.

We ask members to take turns to lead a circular walk of their choice, which they have previously walked out to make sure it’s suitable for the group. We meet at the chosen pub/café and after ordering our meals, set off knowing they will be ready for our return.
We always walk at a nice steady pace so no one gets left behind and stop for breathers and to admire the views.

During the winter months, which can be very wet underfoot, a walk can be organised just using pavements or quiet country lanes. One such walk was around the Chichester Walls, which was enjoyed despite the inclement weather.

We are a very friendly group, and our post-Christmas stroll is just a short pre-lunch walk of about ¾ hour when we are then joined by our non-walking partners for a very convivial meal with all the Christmas trimmings.

There is an annual charge of £3 for each member mainly to cover the £5 paid to walk leaders to help with their expenses when checking out walks for us.
