Gleadless meeting point Aug 2026


Gleadless Walk March 2018

Gleadless socialising Aug 2026

 

The Gleadless Wellbeing Walk was established in 2001. Initially walkers met at the bus stop and socialised after the walk in Newfield Green clinic. However, in 2018 they moved to the Terry Wright Community Centre. The centre, which is now part of a pioneering mental health hub was refurbished to a very high standard in 2026.

Walkers generally set off in two groups (a short, flatish walk for those with limited mobility, and a medium length walk for those who can walk a bit further. After the walks we meet up again in the Terry Wright Community Centre for tea and biscuits. A nominal charge is made to cover the cost of renting the room but, as always, the walks themselves are free. 

Occasionally one or more groups of walkers catch a bus to another part of the city to walk before catching the bus back again. 

It's very rare that we don't meet to walk. Rain, snow and wind don't generally put us off although we may decide to spend less time walking and more time talking back in the warmth of the community room socialising! However, we definitely don't walk if conditions seem dangerous, for instance, if the footpaths are icy.
