Here to help you stay independent and connected in your community

Our local walks are a friendly way to get outside, enjoy the local area and spend time with others.

Some walks start from New Mills Volunteer Centre, while others use the NMVC minibus to visit nearby walking routes. The walks are supportive and sociable, with trained walk leaders for the Summer Walks.
