Every Wednesday Morning

Wednesday morning is designated for walking, starting at 9.30am sharp at the old main gates to the Kent & Canterbury Hospital. Weather permitting, we walk through the orchards and fields, but in winter more frequently on the roads. These walks are open to all members and their friends. We walk at a moderate pace. Sturdy footwear advised. The walk takes about an hour. We have a Whatsapp group for members only which you should join to find out whether a walk will take place and other details. Please contact Alison Culverwell on social@ohsca.org to join the Whatsapp group.
