Walks
Background.
Linda Harrison originally organised the ‘Guided Health Walks’ starting from Faversham Library every Wednesday together with ‘U3A walks’ plus arranging and leading walks for Faversham Footpaths Group as well. We are pleased that although Linda was unwell a year or so ago, and stood back for a time, she has been back leading walks with us again. However as before a ‘standby walk leader’ is really still required to assist the Group. All walks are open to members, their friends, relatives and others who may be interested in becoming a member of the Group.
The next Planned Walk will be on Sunday 21st April 2024
Our next walk will be on 21st April 2024, details to be advised after Easter ..
Future Walks
More 2024 walks will be announced when known.
The previous walk went along the East side of Faversham Creek towards Nagden Marshes on Sunday 10th March 2024
Our Walk Leaders wondered whether anyone would be brave enough to turn up for our walk this morning, so thank you for two of you joining us – it was a pleasure to share our very rainy walk with you this morning. Wrapped up in our waterproof clothing we embraced the rain and, as always, there was much to talk about and enjoy along the way.
We weren’t able to walk quite as far as planned because of flooded pathways, so we retraced our steps to Standard Quay, where we stopped for coffee and cake in the Secret Garden cafe.
Let’s hope for clearer skies for our next walk in April !
