Ashfield U3A Walking Group 'B'












We offer walks from around 4 miles up to 6 miles in distance, and would ask everyone to take a drink with them. We meet locally and go on our chosen itinerary. Our normal walking day is on the third Thursday at 10:00, this being the day most suitable for the majority of our potential members. Just turn up at the meeting place or ring Dorrie on 0115-9640452 for further details. Only an absolute downpour will cancel the walk.

Walk leaders required. Please let Dorrie have suggestions of walks in your area or those which you have enjoyed and would like to share with members of the group.

Anyone who is willing to give a lift to someone in their area without a car, or anyone who is willing to contribute £2 - £3 towards cost of travel, depending on distance, please fill in name, area and phone number on the form provided on the 'Walking Group B' notice board. Anyone requiring a lift may then contact you.
