Purton Walking Group is a friendly, welcoming group of people who enjoy walking. We walk twice a month with walks, which are around 5 miles, being organised by our members. We currently have around 40 members who take their turn in organising and leading the walks, some of which are local and some we drive to the start.
The walk leaders will decide their walk, pre-walk the route then email everyone about a week beforehand with details including stiles, the conditions underfoot (mud, etc) and the distance. The leaders also decide the start time, which is normally around 9.30am-10am.
All our communications are by email and members of the group share their contact information - home address, landline and mobile numbers. Emails are not sent bcc. In addition, all our members live in Purton and we do hope our members will volunteer to lead walks.
We welcome new members and anyone living in Purton who is interested in joining should email purtonwalking@gmail.com
