Meander

The Meander project connects Hospitalfield to local landscapes through walking. Led by Hospitalfield’s volunteer walk leaders, the project promotes wellbeing through walking and cultivates a place where people can enjoy being active at their own pace.

Volunteering opportunities with Meander include joining a walk, training to be a walk leader, and helping devise new routes.

If you’d like to note your interest in volunteering with our Meander project, or if you’d like to hear more please contact us at volunteer@hospitalfield.org.uk 01241 656 124.

The first Meander of 2023 will be on Thursday 23rd February! If you’re interested in taking part for the first time, you can find full information on how to get involved here on our website: https://hospitalfield.org.uk/visit/events/meander-2023/ 

“The gardens are a wonderful place for peaceful contemplation: walking in a real life secret garden where you can connect with the beauties of the natural world.”

Julie, Volunteer Walk Leader

“I work in a stressful job and enjoy walking as a stress buster and escape from the rigors of work. Last spring, as a newly qualified Paths for All Walk Leader, I joined the Meander group.  The sights, sounds and smells of this woodland and garden  were a sensory delight – the epitome of promoting wellbeing. I knew I would be spending more time here”

Willi, Volunteer Walk Leader
