Rolling Walks Programme from 29/4/2021
Walks Update 25.7.21
The following walks are planned during the next 1-2 weeks, subject to changes in covid rules. There is a limit of 12 people on each walk. All walks need to be pre-booked. Please email or phone Noel (noeldavey@compuserve.com, 01758 713300) as soon as possible if you would like to join any of these walks. We will try to give priority to those who have missed out on earlier walks and repeat the walk if demand is well above the limit for any particular walk.
You are welcome to book more than one walk; if you do, please rank your preferences in case of overbooking. You can assume you are booked for a walk unless you hear from me before the formal Walk Notice is sent out (usually 1-2 days before the walk). Please let me know as soon as possible if you have to pull out of a walk you have booked. We hope to see you. Noel.
