Wellbeing Walks Barnsley is an Inclusive Walking scheme covering the Borough of Barnsley. All our walks are free for people to attend. We particularly encourage people with long-term health conditions to join our walks. 

We have put together a programme of led walks throughout Barnsley to suit people of all ages and abilities. They're a great way to be more active, improve your health and make new friends. 

Wellbeing Walks are not about rambling, hiking or 'power walking' - they're just short, led walks in your local area at your own pace. All our walks are led by qualified, friendly walk leaders who will welcome you to the group and support you on your walk. 

We recommend that you wear flat, sensible footwear and bring suitable clothing for the unpredictable British weather!  

If you would like to get involved with setting up walks in Barnsley, we would love to hear from you.
