New Wellbeing Walking Groups

Wellbeing Walks

Run in partnership with North Northamptonshire Council, Wellbeing Walks are volunteer led, fun, free and friendly local walking groups open to all ages and abilities. There are currently over 20 walks across North Northamptonshire and we are very excited that we will now be running a weekly wellbeing walk here at Priors Hall Park.

Walking is a low-impact activity that is easy on your joints and can be done at any age or fitness level. These walks will typically take around an hour, and we will be walking around 2 miles.

Walking has many health and wellbeing benefits including:

• maintaining a healthy weight
• reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression
• improving your mood
• boosting self-esteem 
• connecting you to nature which is proven to reduce stress, lower your blood pressure and boost immune function

A significant benefit of joining a walking group is the social aspect. Our Wellbeing Walks can help you meet new people, build friendships and provide a sense of community. 

Whether you are looking to improve your physical health and mental wellbeing, or simply looking to meet new people, a walking club can provide a supportive and enjoyable environment to achieve your goals.

Attending and booking

Everyone is welcome on the walks, no matter your age or ability. Children under the age of 16 need to be accompanied by an adult.

There is no need to book, we just recommend that you arrive 10 minutes early for your first walk to complete a registration form.

Our weekly group will be starting on Tuesday 24th June and will run weekly on a Tuesday, meeting in the Amphitheatre at 11am.

Buggy Walks

Alongside the weekly wellbeing walks, we will also be running monthly Buggy Walks with North Northamptonshire Council. These walks will focus on using the buggy friendly walking route around Zone 1. A gentle walk for those with buggy’s. The perfect opportunity to be active and meet new people.

These walks will take place near the end of each month, on a Wednesdays at 1pm - meeting in the Amphitheatre

Free with no booking needed, just turn up.

These walks will be around 30-45 minutes.
