Walking for Health

The aim of the scheme is to develop a network of health walks across South Tyneside and Newcastle.

All walks are targeted to minimum of 1 hour and at a regular pace. We currently have 11 led walks per week, led by fully trained volunteer walk leaders. For all those beginners we also run a short 30 minute walk once a month. All are welcome to come along, take part and get walking! 

The Walking Works Wonders partnership is made up of Groundwork South Tyneside & Newcastle, South Tyneside Council, Public Health in South Tyneside, Newcastle City Council, Mental Health Matters, NECA and the Friends of Marine Park all are committed to improving the health and lifestyle of the local community.
