Overview

I am putting this pop-up walk on at short notice to replace Paul's Saturday walk which he has had to postpone for health reasons.  It will be the same startpoint (Brading) and time (10.30am) . Not yet entirely sure where we will be walking , but it should be a 5 ish mile circular, with a drink/snack stop. If anyone is inclined, then after the walk there's the option of a cool drink at the Bugle Inn

The meeting point will be outside St Mary's Church on Brading High Street (on the opposite corner to the former waxworks). The public toilets in the adjacent Brading carpark have I believe now re-opened

By car:

We won't have now access to the BYCC carpark, but there is free onstreet parking in Coach Lane just opposite the (pay) carpark adjacent to the church, or on nearby residential streets - I have never found a problem in finding space along/around there. But failing which there is always the (pay) carpark itself  
 

By public transport:

Brading is served by regular No 2 and 3 buses in both directions, and there are stops right near the church

Car share:

In the interests of the air, parking, and non-drivers, if anyone is able to offer, or needs, a carshare then please post on WhatsApp group (to join group please message Serena 07564-811690)
