We run a variety of weekly group activities and are constantly looking to add more activities and events. Our groups are designed to be engaging, inclusive and safe, they are a great place to meet new people and try new activities in a non judgemental space.
Please see the groups that are currently running below
(If you would like to volunteer with us or discuss new group ideas with us we would love to hear for you)
"Walking is Mental has made such a difference for me. It’s amazing how something as simple as going for a walk can lift your mood, especially when you’re with people who understand. The group is really welcoming, and it gives me a reason to get out, talk, and just feel a bit more like myself again.
Walking is Mental Attendee
Walking is mental is our free social walking group, we meet at different easily accessible areas around Glasgow each week for an hour long walk (Glasgow Green, Alexandra Park, Kelvingrove Park etc.) and the walk is usually followed by a visit to a cafe or bakery for some tasty treats! Its a great way to meet new people, spend some time outside and keep active, we try our best not to be too deterred by the weather and dogs are welcome (ideally accompanied by their owner).
We meet every Sunday at 11:30am,
