Wonderwalks

The Wonderwalks group enjoys a weekly "health walk" providing good exercise and a chance to meet up with friends. The walks take place every Monday. This work is jointly organised with the Physical Activities Co-ordinator, Debbie Smith, who leads the walks and monitors exercise levels. Some of the regular walks include Jesmond Dene, Blaney Row to Wylam and Derwent Walk. The cost is 50p and the walks last around one hour. Contact Search to book a place on the minibus.

We have a programme of walks which includes starting points for each one.

Easywalks
Search has two walking groups aimed at people who would like to start getting some gentle exercise but who cannot walk for more than 20 - 30 minutes and who would like to walk at a gentle pace. On Mondays, transport leaves Search at 10.15am, returning by 12.45pm at the latest. This allows time for a refreshment stop during or after the walk. On Fridays transport leaves westwood Lodge at 9:45am, Holywell Close (off Barrack Road, Arthurs Hill) at 10am, returning by 12 noon. Ring to find out more details or to book your place on the minibus.
