Steps and Stories - Leazes Park Audiobook Walk

Steps and Stories is a chance to discover the joy of audiobooks through Newcastle Libraries' Reading for Wellbeing Team's new audiobook walks.

At the end of the walk, there will be an opportunity to share what you have been listening to and how you found the experience.

The walk will begin and end by Springbank Pavillion. This is located by the children's play area. (What3Words: ///MugsMakesThings). Refreshments and toilets available.

The whole walk takes place on tarmacked footpaths and should be suitable for those who use a wheelchair.
