Walks and Rambles
The group is full but please read on
There are now 3 walking groups meeting on Mondays, Tuesdays & Thursdays, all full. Each started when the previous one(s) was full, so if you would like to join a
walking group please contact the Study Groups Coordinator & when she has enough interest she will be able to help you all get another group started.
We have one walk of about 5 miles & one about 8 miles each month, plus a longer day out when there are 5 Thursdays in the month. We are keeping a waiting list
and may be able to include a small number of newcomers on the 8 mile days only. If that is of interest please contact us.
We send the details of each month's walks to members by email
We have a self-led group weekend away in the UK each year and an overseas holiday usually booked with and led by Ramblers Worldwide Holidays

NEWS: MONEY GIVEN TO THE WALKING GROUP
“The Walking Partnership” set up by Ramblers Worldwide Holidays have given us donations every year to date! Why ?? Some U3A members have been on river cruising,
sightseeing or walking holidays with Ramblers Holidays. So ?? They nominated our walking group to receive £10 per person on UK holidays, £20 on European or £30
on long haul from Ramblers Worldwide Holidays. Why ?? The Walking Partnership gives money to local groups to help with organising walks, encouraging people to
get out walking, providing equipment to help walkers etc. Ramblers Worldwide Holidays has given many millions of pounds to walking charities & conservation
projects in Britain and the countries they visit. What did we do with it ?? Some of the above, we will tell you if you ask.
Any U3A member can nominate us. www.ramblersholidays.co.uk has details of their holidays & for more details about "The Walking Partnership" visit
