Walk for Wellbeing 2025

Join us on Saturday 17th May for a feel-good walk supporting mental health and community connection.

As part of National Walking Month and Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re inviting you to take part in a fun and friendly 5km circular walk around Barnstaple. Whether you’re looking to lift your mood, get active, meet others or just enjoy the outdoors – this walk is for everyone.

⏰Meet from 10:30am at Family Compass, Old Town Station, North Walk, Barnstaple, EX31 1DF

🚢🏻Walk starts at 11am

The route will take us mainly along the beautiful Tarka Trail and some pavements, making it a gentle and accessible walk suitable for most people. Dogs are very welcome – the more paws the better!

Please wear appropriate clothing and be ready for the weather (sunscreen, waterproofs, comfy shoes etc.)

Refreshments will be provided at Family Compass after the walk, giving you a chance to chat, relax and enjoy the community spirt.

Together, we can support each other’s wellbeing – one step at a time. 🐝

We can’t wait to walk with you!
