Hi does anyone know if there are walking groups in or near Hounslow ( Greater London)

I am looking to join a group in my local area.

I would suggest that you put your question into Google, I see there are a few that come up, but don't know which would be closest to you :)

Maybe they are too far away.

Some Doctor's surgeries run walking groups, maybe contact yours and see if they do. Of course during these strange times, you will probably find that many groups are not running.

U3A often do walks (mostly over 50s, but there isn't an age limit). Your GP surgery may well have links through a social prescriber. Ask at your local library (email them) - groups often start/leave from such venues. Your local council will have a team of people looking after active transport and the general enquiry line could give you some good contacts. The Ramblers are pretty active in lots of areas too.

It's a great idea to get involved with a walking group. Lovely way to meet people and the pressure of conversation is taken away when you are all enjoying the scenery. Also a great way to discover new paths that you can re-visit. I hope you find something local that suits you, and that the weather stays fine this autumn

Not what you're looking for?
