Blue Sky Ideas for Walking
STOP PRESS: in 2016, we are planning to bring back a regular series of Talk the Walk - watch this space!!!
Networking events for people promoting vibrant walkable neighbourhoods
Format of a Talk the Walk event is fairly straightforward.
- Meet up
- Mix and Mingle
- Listen to a 3-5 minute presentation - up to 16 at any event - (let us know if you have something you want to talk about).
- Ask questions - Share ideas - Create an action plan
Check out our Advice sheet on School Growing Clubs - read how it was derived from two Talk the Walks - and download it here.
We are always open to partnerships offering venues, so please do get in touch if you would like us to run a Talk the Walk - simply email us.
For each event we create a new wiki page to which you can add information, recommendations and suggestions.
