Striders Health Walk

The Striders Health Walk is a friendly, sociable session for those who are comfortable walking at a slightly stronger pace and would like to improve or maintain their fitness.

It’s a great option if you are building towards longer or more vigorous walks, want to increase your stamina or simply enjoy getting outside for some regular exercise with good company.

We walk as a group and nobody is left behind. The aim is to keep moving at a purposeful but manageable pace while still having plenty of opportunity to chat and enjoy the walk.

Regular walking can help improve stamina, strength, balance and general wellbeing, while being part of a friendly group can provide that extra motivation to keep active.

If you feel the Striders might be a little too fast for you at the moment, our Strollers Health Walk leaves at 10am and offers a gentler pace. This gives you the choice of two groups and the opportunity to progress when you feel ready.

A fun, supportive and social way to keep active and enjoy the benefits of walking.
