Closer to Home Walking Network along with Sandyford & Goldenhill Residents Association S.A.G.E. meet outside the Mace Shop on Shelford Road, Sandyford at 2.00 p.m. on Tuesday’s and Sunday’s to go for local walks in the area.
The walks go down James Brindley Way and onto the new purpose built pathway’s through acres of greenway, which are most enjoyable and relaxing as well as being able to get much needed exercise at the same time.
The views are really exceptional, which take in sights of the church at Newchapel to the castle at Mow Cop. There are also small pools and ponds on the route that show water reeds and bull rushes growing in their own habitat.
As if this isn’t enough, on the way back you will be entitled to eat healthy at McDonald’s food retaurant in Sandyford for free, whether it is inside when the weather is less favourable to sitting outside on the garden furniture when the sun is shining.
Closer to Home, Walk 2 Fitness through NHS funding will provide every walker with either a free low fat blueberry or chocolate muffin, a fruit bag or carrot sticks.
McDonald’s will also provide either a free hot cup of tea or coffee or a cold drink of Coca Cola or Tango Orange.
These walks are also an excellent way of getting to meet other people, so come on everybody lets make these walks a special weekly get together.
