Walking Group

Walk & Talk groups are not only a great way to enjoy the seasonal sights and sounds of local gardens and greenery, they are places to meet people in a relaxed outdoor setting, whether you already enjoy getting active outdoors or are building your confidence to get out and about.


Walk & Talk groups are not only a great way to enjoy the seasonal sights and sounds of local gardens and greenery, they are places to meet people in a relaxed outdoor setting, whether you already enjoy getting active outdoors or are building your confidence to get out and about.  

We have two walks per week: 

- Wednesdays Haggerston Park: 11am–12pm Meeting at Queensbridge Road entrance of Haggerston Park E2 8EA

- Thursdays Victoria Park: 2–3pm Meeting at New Kingshold Community Centre E9 7JE

They are spaces to walk and talk with others or, if you prefer, to just quietly take in the sights and sounds with no pressure to talk. 

Walk & Talk is different to other walking groups in that there is less focus on the walking pace and destination and more on the environment and interaction between ourselves and nature and each other. These gentle walks are ideal for emotional and physical wellbeing and recovery and can help with fatigue and sleep problems. 

A trained Walk Leader will be there to welcome you, to guide you along the route and rest stops and help you to pace yourself. 

Walking groups are open to all, please get in touch if you are interested in joining!
