We run our Women’s Wellness Walks for every stage of life, offering a safe, supportive space to connect with nature and with each other. Whether you’re navigating the highs and lows of life or seeking community during the stages of menopause, these walks are for you. We provide full support for all stages of menopause, creating an inclusive and understanding environment.
This walk isn’t just about enjoying beautiful scenery; it’s about fostering friendships, empowering one another, and finding strength in community. Research shows that spending time outdoors improves mood, reduces stress, and enhances overall well-being. What better way to reap these benefits than by joining a group of like-minded women in an uplifting and supportive setting?
Walk Leader: For those who don’t know my story, I experienced a medical menopause in my 20s, which came with a long list of symptoms. This journey led me to train in menopause and nutrition, and I’ve since been invited to participate in both medical and retail panels to discuss the physical and mental impacts of menopause. Our walks provide a safe space to share openly if you wish, or simply to enjoy being in nature together.
