Walk and Talk with Karen and Emma on
the first Sunday of every month. Arranged by Karen Mills (Zen
Occupational Health) and Emma Dechoux (Inspired Learning), the walks
show that exercise, the outdoors and socialising benefit mental health.
The two-mile, all flat, walks start at 10am in The Square (Nantwich town
centre) and go around Nantwich Lake (off Shrewbridge Road and Park Road)
and return to Aroma Cafe for coffee or tea and a chat (optional). Open
to everyone - adults, dogs and children (supervised by an adult).

their own times. Information on the length and route of the walks and
the time they take to complete, plus the degree of exertion needed, are
