Saundersfoot’s ‘Walk Talk Walk’ sessions from the doctor’s surgery continue, promoting physical and mental wellbeing.
County councillor for the village’s south ward Cllr Chris Williams said that there was an ‘excellent turnout’ for the first get together on January 12, with 21 people having a leisurely walk through the village.
“We were joined by staff at the surgery as well as members of the community who are registered with the Saundersfoot practice,” he remarked.
“It was a great mix of ages and abilities and everyone had an opportunity to engage in conversations with people they hadn’t met before.
“This was a relaxed walk and finished off at the Regency Hall for a warm cup of tea or coffee. I would like to thank County Councillor Rhys Jordan who accompanied us on our walk and it was refreshing to listen to his impact as a wellbeing champion of Pembrokeshire County Council.
“Thanks also to the Regency hall for their hospitality and their continued support to this initiative for the community.
“For those who still don’t know what this initiative is about - this will be a weekly walking group where you will be able to talk and walk in a safe and confidential space.
“This will be a gentle, approx. 1 hour walk that is accessible to all levels of ability. We will walk as slow as the slowest walker and no one gets left behind.
“This group is not just promoting physical health but also nurturing mental and emotional wellbeing in the community. Everyone is welcome to attend,” he added.
Please meet at Saundersfoot surgery every Friday at 12.55 pm ready to leave at 1 pm.
