We’re thrilled to share some exciting news to help you stay active, meet new people, and enjoy the great outdoors – three brand new free Health Walks are launching this spring across North Herts and Stevenage!
Whether you’re looking to ease into gentle exercise or simply enjoy a stroll with others in the community, these taster walks are a brilliant way to get started. Plus, they’re completely free and open to all abilities — so why not grab a friend, lace up your comfy shoes, and give it a go?
