Do you enjoy Walking?

Many people have recently found a new love of walking and how great it is for your health and physical and mental wellbeing.

The North Craven Strollers is a volunteer-led scheme in Settle, Gargrave and Hellifield.

They offer easy, gentle walks of between 30-90 minutes in Settle every Wednesday staring at 1.30pm in the Millennium Gardens, off Kirkgate near Booths supermarket. For more information on this group follow this link: Ramblers Wellbeing Walks North Craven
