Enjoy conversations and fresh air next to the beautiful River Itchen.

About the group

Spending time in nature is great for both your emotional and physical wellbeing. It can help us draw parallels with our lives, help us find some perspective and build our confidence. 

Our weekly walk will help to improve your mood and make new connections with others.  For our current walkers, the group has quickly become something they always look forward to.

The walk is at a leisurely pace on easy terrain and takes around 45-60 minutes. 

    How to join us

    There’s no need to contact us in advance, just come along! We usually meet on a Thursday at midday outside The Old Chemist, 16 Manor Farm road, Bitterne Park, SO18 1NP.  We’ll begin with a chat before setting off.

    Please email us at sidebyside@solentmind.org.uk if you’d like to attend this group. We understand coming along to a group or activity for the first time can be difficult, so if you would like to talk to someone or meet up with one of our team first, we'll be happy to help.
