What is Kidderminster Stride and Stroll

Kidderminster Stride and Stroll welcomes participants from all sectors of the community who wish to improve their health & fitness and make new friends.

Every Thursday we lead a Health walk designed to help those with onging health problems get out for a short walk to meet like minded people. Ending with a cuppa at a local cafe or pub.

Every Saturday four different walks, to suit groups of varying abilities, are organised from a named venue. Group 'A' being the most intense suitable for our seasoned walkers to group 'D' suitable for those just starting an exercise programme. Each group has two trained Walk Leaders who are familiar with the route.

All walkers walk at their own risk. 

There are no weekly fees or annual subscriptions to join our group and all are welcome.

Well behaved dogs on a short lead are welcome on our walks.

Just turn up at one of our walks 20 minutes before the start time and report to a walk leader wearing a high visibility vest.

Walks are regularly reviewed and augmented with new routes to improve the programme and add variety. There are no weekly fees or annual subscriptions.

"Enjoyable, healthy and free. Why not come along and give us a try."
