Walks are normally on a Monday, starting at 10 am. Some of us meet, to organise car sharing, at Whirlow and leave there at 9.30am to travel to the meeting place. Walks are between 7 to 9 miles and mostly but not exclusively in the Peak District. We usually have a short morning break and a longer lunch stop. We often visit a pub or cafe after the walk. Every member of the group leads a walk and adds details of their walks to the programme. Online or paper copies are available to members of the group.Members of the Group are advised to carry an Emergency Form with them.Members of the Group should all have read Guidance Notes and accepted the Risk Assessment
