A free, friendly peer support group for adults who are bereaved, offering gentle walks in local green spaces alongside the opportunity to connect with others, share experiences, and find support in a relaxed and welcoming environment. There’s no need to book in advance; simply join us on the next walk.
What is it?
This free peer support group is for adults coping with the grief that comes from losing a loved one. It provides a welcoming space to meet new people, share experiences, and receive support from others who understand. Whether you’re seeking companionship or a listening ear on tough days, this group offers comfort through connection and movement.
What to expect?
Whether you’ve recently experienced bereavement or it was some time ago, this group is here to help you feel supported and listened to. There is no pressure to talk about anything you don’t wish to. The group is simply an opportunity for you to meet new people while getting out into nature.
We carefully choose locations where routes are accessible for all. The walks are short and easy, and usually end with the opportunity to enjoy a brew.
