Walk with a ‘buddy’ ?
If you enjoy walking and would like to find a walking buddy, Group Support are willing to set up a What’s App group so members can find a walking partner/sThe Nordic
Walking Group have this week successfully started this and couples are going out walking keeping to the social distancing rules.
If you do not have access to What’s App if you email me I am willing to try and find you a walking partner🤞 My email address is or my telephone number is 07900525222 if you want to send me a text
Walking is a great way to keep fit and it is so much more enjoyable doing it with someone else

Online activities
In these continuing, uncertain times it seems a good idea to let folk know what activities are ongoing, albeit online.
Here is a list that should be up-to-date:
Friday night quiz, Digital cameras, Nordic walking morning and evening, Recorders, Spanish – beginners, Canal walking, Walking netball, Family history, Easy riders, Pedal Pushers,Tech and science, Computer group and IT Help.
If any on-line active group is not listed then please amend the list or ask for an amendment:
If you want to start an on-line group and are not sure how – ASK! Help is available.
Lastly, remember that our web site is read around the world so its not just locals that read our news. It might be that your activity inspires someone to have a go elsewhere.
Stay safe – Phil
