Buckden Roundabout

August 2019

Huntingdonshire Health Walk Scheme August 2019

This month, the group will be walking out on its four Wednes-

days at 2pm and five Fridays at 10am, 9 out of the 29 safe, av-

erage-60-minute, trained-leader-led walks. The walk on the

30th is from the Village Hall car park, and the one on the 21st is

from the Black Horse pub at Godmanchester, not Brampton.

Anyone able to maintain an exercise-walking pace for up to 75

minutes should enjoy these walks. Suitable clothing and foot-

wear plus a small bottle of drinking water are key accessories.

The walks are free but voluntary contributions are welcome, as

there is a generous council subsidy and accident insurance cov-

er is provided. Refreshment and toilet facilities are normally

provided at the chosen rendezvous.

Please note that there are also 20-30-minute walks from the

Buckden GP Surgery every Thursday from 10am.
