Free guided health walks around various areas in Nottingham.

Do you want to stay active and make new friends? Join one of our guided wellbeing walks!

Walking has many proven health benefits, from helping you lose weight to reducing your risk of developing type-2 diabetes or certain cancers, and it can also be a great way to meet new people and improve your mood. If all that sounds appealing, Age UK Notts is able to offer regular guided walks around various areas of Nottingham.

Best Foot Forward walks are led by trained walk leaders, one who leads from the front and the other who follows at the back of the group. Walks are FREE and everyone is welcome, though we ask that people under the age of 18 are accompanied by an adult.

Our walks take place whatever the weather, so simply dress appropriately and join the group at the start location.

There is a brief health questionnaire to complete before your first walk which is available from the walk leader on the day.
