Get Going in Gedling

Get Going in Gedling is our free healthy walking scheme that helps people to increase their levels of physical activity.

With the help of trained volunteers, we run a series of walks through local parks, countryside and residential areas.

How to Get Involved

You can simply turn up on the day, although please arrive 10 minutes early for your first walk as you will be expected to complete a short health questionnaire. Our free, volunteer-led walks are suitable for people of all ages, although anyone wishing to attend should be prepared to walk approximately two miles in about 40 minutes.

Refreshments are available to purchase after each walk and we recommend you wear comfortable clothing and sturdy footwear suitable for walking and bring a drink of water.
