Group Description :
These are short walks of up to 2 miles with no stiles or rough ground. Please contact the leader for the start point.

Guidelines for Short Walks Group 2025/26.

  1. Group members meet at 10.30 at the agreed meeting point. Please be prompt as we may not wait for late comers.
  2. Please inform the group leader if you have any health issues which might be relevant to participating in a walking group and which could need consideration when planning or carrying out the walks.
  3. The group will normally meet even in wet weather, however there may be times when a walk could be cancelled if the weather is unfit e.g. icy or snowy. If in doubt, please check with the leader.
  4. Walks are usually on paths, not over rough ground and not over stiles, and take about an hour. Sensible footwear and clothing are advisable.
  5. Whilst group leaders plan the walks with your safety in mind, it is advisable for group members to carry an emergency contact number with them and a mobile phone with the leader's number saved in case this should be required.
  6. U3A members are not covered by the Third Age Trust policy in respect of any personal accidents they may themselves suffer. However, some household policies may cover personal accident.
  7. Arrangements are made with local pubs/cafes for the group to park in their car parks, and for us to return there for our drinks.
  8. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-countryside-code is the web address of the statutory guidance which we should follow during our walks.
