Cumbria

The weekly Walk & Talk leaves from Millom Safe Space (aka Tin Chapel / Pensioners Hall) around 11am every week. These weekly walks are a gentle, easy & safe way to meet other folks, have a natter, take your mind off life’s worries for a while. We’ll usually have a wander out to the coast and maybe round the sea wall or through the reserve, sometimes we only go as far as the benches by the pool – we want as many people as possible to have the opportunity to attend so we’re putting on walks you can all attend.

This is a Wellness Walks Big Day out event with minibus transport available to and from Millom. Another classic day out - with the wonderful benefit that due to the support of the National Trust we're also able to make this event possible for anyone with limited mobility. We'll head the the famously beautiful Tarn Hows and do a slow loop of the tarns with lots of stops.

This is an undulating walk will focus on positives and celebrating being outside in a small group. We'll walk from Plain Quarry car park, through the woods and then up to Burton Fell – where we might pause a while to take in the views. We'll then head back and chat along the way if anyone fancies it. A day to appreciate summer is here.

A slightly longer journey time - but wow is it worth it. Smardale Gill is one of the secret beautiful places of Cumbria. We'll head out on a really good track that's almost perfectly flat (it's the old railway line). Along the way we might get to see the local red squirrels - but we'll also definitely see two stunning viaducts as well as some truly stunning scenery.

This is an undulating walk will focus on positives and celebrating being outside in a small group. We'll walk from Holme village, through open countryside and then up to Farleton Knott – where we might pause a while to take in the views. We'll then head back and chat along the way if anyone fancies it. A day to appreciate summer is here.

This picturesque walk starts at High Dam car park and takes in stunning scenery and views of the Southern Lake District Fells. From the car park we head up to a man-made tarn along gravel and woodland paths before continuing on through open fields and woodlands around Finsthwaite. There will be a rest break at Stott Park Bobbin Mill, a 19-century bobbin mill and museum. The route is undulating with short uphill sections but a stunning and easy paced walk.
