Nordic Walking

Join us for this weekly social group for people with Parkinson's and their families.
We will go for a gentle Nordic Walk around the surfaced paths of the Forestry
Centre, taking regular breaks at benches if needed. With the bird hide not far from
the main Centre, and the pond and Lake a little further along, we have plenty of
options to do as much or as a little a walk as everyone requires. We also have
access to mobility scooters and trampers for anyone who isn't able to walk, but would still like to join us for the journey and chat.

For more information contact [email protected] or call 01283 595906

Nordic Walk: 1:30pm until 2:30pm (maximum)

Hot drink and chat: 2:30pm until 3pm (please feel free to join us just for the

drink if you are not currently able to do the walk)

Price: £2.50 (no charge for carer)

Nordic Walking is a low impact exercise with the use of Nordic Walking
poles. It has been shown to have a really positive impact on the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
