Free weekly walk for all parents and their little ones. Jo and Nicki have partnered with the wonderful Mamma Social Co as parent leads to help tackle loneliness and isolation in parenthood. Getting out just once a week to meet up with other lovely local parents who all feel the same way is a breath of fresh air, mentally and physically. After the walk (pram friendly) they head back to the lovely Nourish café where you can have a cuppa and something to eat if you fancy. If the walk is not right for you that day then you can always join them at the café afterwards. At The Sadie Centre, Fridays from 10am – 11.30am until the end of August.
