Did you know that Age UK Notts have a social walking group that ends at Stonebridge City Farm & Gardens? 🚶‍♀️🚶🚶‍♂️
They meet every Thursday outside Victoria Leisure Centre and take a stroll around Sneinton, ending at Stonebridge 🐑🌳

These walking groups are an excellent way to get out the house, meet new people and reconnect with nature ☺️

Stonebridge staff strive to make sure that the farm is accessible to everyone and it's also a great place to stop and have a cuppa at the end of your walk!
