Dinton Walking Group
What does the Group do?
We organise about 80 leisurely paced 4 to 6 mile walks on weekdays and weekends throughout the year usually within 10/15 miles radius of the centre of Wokingham . We also arrange a number of London walks and some further afield. We have an active programme of monthly meetings with relevant and entertaining speakers, social events, BBQ, American suppers, Christmas lunch, Charity fundraising quizzes and organize an annual UK summer walking holiday.
Object
The Group was formed to increase opportunities for all like minded adults to gain safe access to the countryside and promote friendship amongst members by providing a regular programme of walks and related activities. No one will ever know the pleasure that walking and talking within a group can bring until it has been experienced.
History
The Group was formed in September 1999 under the auspices of Wokingham District Countryside Services by amalgamating the Womens Walking Group and the Over 50’s mixed walking Group. After two years the Group formed its own management committee and all walks are member devised and led.
Where and when are meetings held?
Originally formed at Dinton Pastures the Group is now based at Barkham Village Hall and meets at 7.45pm on the second Tuesday of each month
Membership
Currently 160 members with an average of 23 or so on each walk. The Group offers a very warm welcome to anyone who would like to join us for fresh air, exercise and companionship. However some prefer to walk quietly and safely within a group whilst enjoying the natural world. Annual membership from 1 September 2009 is £6 (six pounds).
