Poole Heart Support Group Walking Group
PHSG is a Member of the British Heart Foundation Independent Heart Support Network
and affiliated to Arrhythmia Alliance – The Heart Rhythm Charity
The Walking Group is open to all PHSG members and has been in existence since 1997. It aims to develop wellbeing both physically and mentally by being outside in the natural environment and to promote new friendships and camaraderie.
If you would like any further information or fancy joining a walk, please get in touch by selecting the ‘Walking Group’ option on the Contact Us page
Walks are held every 10 days on alternate Wednesdays and Saturdays and are organised by Walking Group members who endeavour to source walks that suit all the walking members requirements.
Each walk allows for those who are able to walk up to 3 miles at a standard pace and also for those who prefer to walk around 1 mile at a slower pace.
The walks do not involve steep hills or tricky stiles and help is always at hand if required. Walking is at a pace that allows time to stop to admire views, observe the wonders of nature and enjoy bird song.
Lunch afterwards at a nearby pub adds a bit of incentive!
