Blue Sky Ideas for Walking

Networking events for people promoting walking

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 

Our next Talk the Walk will take place from 4.30pm to 7.00pm on Tuesday 22 June at the Commission of Architecture and the Built Environment (1 Kemble Street, London WC2B 4AN) - the theme is "Retrofitting for walking".  There is also an opportunity to join a guided tour of streets that have been "retro-fitted for walking" that starts at 2.00pm. Register for either or both events here and find out more about the events by clicking on this page: Tuesday 22 June

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:
