Wellbeing Walks with Dave I strive to practice a modern spirituality through mindfulness and self compassion.

Thank you to everyone that joined us this morning for a very enjoyable walk. Next month’s walk will be on Sunday 13th. Any route suggestions are welcome for around 6-8km (up to around 5miles).

It is going to quite a bit cooler and a bit overcast for our walk tomorrow. Setting off from the Banham Community Centre carpark at 10 and heading over to Kenninghall, the walk is fairly flat and easy going. We may have a little rain towards the end which appeals to me rather. Free coffee and cake to finish. I look forward to seeing you there.

Anyone fancy quite a long walk on Sunday 16th August? Setting off from Banham Community Centre carpark at around 10am, the walk will be around 6 miles and 2h30m or so. It’s flat but good footwear is recommended along with head covering if it’s sunny and something to drink.

We are a friendly bunch and stop for a coffee and a natter at the end under the shelter outside the Barrel.

Please let me know if you are coming.

The temperature is set to be a more bearable 25 degrees towards the end of our walk tomorrow so it looks very promising. Setting off from the Community Centre carpark at 10am, we walk at a steady but relaxed pace with the focus on chat and companionship.

The walk will take us around 1.5 - 2 hours and we end with coffee and cake in the shelter at the front of the Barrel (thank you Brian).

It may be a good idea to bring some water to drink and watch out for the grass seeds that catch in between your socks and trainers (ouch). Other than that, all good!

See you there.

Next Sunday (12th July) looks like being a good day for a walk. Here’s the route I plan and being as it may be hot by t...

Next Sunday (12th July) looks like being a good day for a walk. Here’s the route I plan and being as it may be hot by the time we finish, it’s likely to be at a leisurely pace. Around 4.5 miles round Banham Moore and Copince’s Fen and back to the shelter outside the Barrel for our now customary coffee and cake.

Let me know if you are up for it.

It’s a lovely morning for a walk. Sunny, with some cloud and a gentle breeze. See you all at 10am in the Community Centre car park.

Here's the route I plan for this Sunday 14th meeting in the Banham Community Centre carpark for a 10 am start. It's a nice easy route and a great way to get into walking if you re starting out. The weather should be dryer on Sunday according to the weather app so fingers crossed.

We take the walk at a steady pace with plenty of chance to chat on the way. What do we talk about? Anything I suppose but we probably steer clear of politics. After all, it is supposed to help create a feeling of wellbeing. It's not a therapy session but chatting does give everyone the chance to be their authentic selves and it's remarkable how this can make one feel OK in oneself.

It is time for another walk I think! Next Sunday morning meeting at 10am in the Banham Community Centre carpark for a wa...

It is time for another walk I think! Next Sunday morning meeting at 10am in the Banham Community Centre carpark for a walk round Banham. Our walks are at a leisurely pace, 4-5 miles in distance and last between 1.5 and 2hours, ending with coffee and some cake. It's a great way of getting to know your way round local footpaths and chatting to people as you go.

Also, as it's midsummer, how about a pilgrimage to the Kenninghall Red Lion on Thursday 18th, setting off at around 6:30.

Please email [email protected] if you fancy joining me.

Last Sunday’s walk was really pleasant. The weather was kind and not too warm so that we were able to chat comfortably while we walked. I am planning our next walk on Sunday 14th June and welcome any suggestions as to where anyone would like us to walk.

Also, what do you think about an evening walk from Banham over to the Kenninghall Red Lion on one the long June evenings? Anyone up for it?

We may be lucky with the weather this morning to our walk around Fersfield airfield. It’s fifty-fifty that it may rain ...

We may be lucky with the weather this morning to our walk around Fersfield airfield. It’s fifty-fifty that it may rain so something waterproof is recommended. We are meeting at 10am in the Banham Community Centre carpark and walking at a steady pace. Just over 5miles and around 2 hours at a nice steady pace. Plenty of time and enough breath left for chatting.

I look forward to seeing you all.
