There are over 1700 members in the Walking Friends Group & we all have our own local knowledge of places to walk. If there’s anyone out there that really wouldn’t mind leading a walk for a couple of hours on a Sunday in areas that you know please get in touch. It doesn’t matter if things go a bit wrong, it’s just a walk, nice & chilled. Will co host along side 😊

Details of the light switch on below. We can incorporate this into a short walk (4ish miles) starting from Giltway (at the back of IKEA). If we leave at 6.15, we will be there in time for the switch on at 7pm and can decide if we want to wait for the fireworks at 8pm before heading back to Giltway.
