We’re launching a new community walking group thanks to support from the Springfield Spark Community Fund, which helps local organisations make the most of Springfield Park and create activities that improve health and wellbeing.

Starting on 19 May, the group will meet every Tuesday at 3pm outside Toaststores café for a gentle guided walk around Springfield Park. Staff and students from Share will take part, alongside local residents and visitors who would like to join.

The walks are designed to help people stay active, meet others and enjoy spending time outdoors in a welcoming and inclusive environment. As well as encouraging healthy habits and improving wellbeing, the project aims to reduce social isolation and help build stronger community connections.

We hope the walking group will encourage a wide range of people to take part, including regular Toaststores café visitors, young families, and older residents from nearby Meadowcroft Care Home.

Everyone is welcome to join us for a relaxed walk, friendly conversation and the chance to explore the park together.
