Walking Group
The practice formed a walking group in January 2006 to provide organized walks for patients, staff and friends led by members of the practice team. The aim is to encourage all of us to exercise a little more and to enjoy some of the wonderful walks that are available locally with like-minded people.
The annual subscription cost of joining the Walking Group is £12.00 per person. All the subscription money will go to the Friends of the Datchet Health Centre, a registered charity (no. 1098325). Details of the charity can be found on the home page of the Health Centre website by following the link to Friends of DHC and on the Charity Commission’s website
For this subscription you will receive written instructions for a walk every month, to be led on the first Sunday of the month. Details of the monthly walk are sent by email (our preferred method) to group members or can be collected at the front desk of the surgery where members will be able to collect a ‘named’ envelope with the walk details. Details of the walks come out at least a week before the walk.
The walks are led by a member of the practice team usually starting at 10 a.m. and are open to all group members. They are circular walks averaging about 5 miles in length. Transport is usually required and we are keen to encourage ‘car-sharing’ - especially to help those without their own transport. Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome! The instructions are simple and clear, with a map, allowing you to be able to complete the walk without a guide if you are unable to attend the led walk.
Members are free to bring occasional guests they consider are able to complete the walk safely. The cost of the walk to guests will be £1.00 per walk to be paid on the day of the walk. If a guest comes on more than two walks a year we ask that they become members of the group. We welcome new walkers to come with us for one or two led walks before deciding to join the group. The cost will be £1.00/per walk to be paid on the day of the walk. If new walkers come on more than two walks a year we ask that they become members of the group. Details of latest walk can be found here. Walk 9 (10) Chalfont St Peter, 05 September 2010 – 10am start. All walkers walk at their own risk.
Membership forms can be downloaded here and returned to Helen Dalton, Walking for Health, 45 Montagu Road, Datchet, Berkshire SL3 9DR or to the front desk at the surgery clearly marked F.A.O.
