My dog and I went along on today's walk, ably led by Matt.

Despite being about 60 of us (including 4 dogs) the day waa very well organised. An area in the first pub (lunch stop) had been reserved by Matt, enabling us all to get a seat easily and we finished up in another pub's function room at the end of the walk, where many of us had delicious pizza over a few drinks. The group were super friendly and Matt was a fab leader, taking us to some secret parts of York, and wittily giving us some historical facts.

Bonus points for being dog-friendly....very important for me as I won't leave my dog alone on a weekend.

The bear and I are now crashed on the sofa reflecting on a super day.

Thanks Matt. Hopefully we will see you again soon 😊🐾

Walks to The Pub

I look forward to the "Walks to the Pub " walks .Mainly In and around York .The people who take part - Male and Female young and old are very friendly .The Organiser Matt makes everyone welcome with his upbeat fun sense of humour. I have learnt more about my local surroundings. Personally for me I like the Flexability of being able to attend walks I can make not having to commit to each one.Its good to meet up with different Characters sharing chit chat .Ending with a drink or coffee in the Pub .A relaxing fun atmosphere to enjoy. I went on the Ist Walk in March 25 Can't Wait For the Ist Anniversary Celebration Walk this March

More than a walking group! After years of very bad health leading…

After years of very bad health leading to social isolation and loss of confidence. I stumbled on an advert for a new social focused group starting, and thought what the hell, What's the worst thing that can happen! If nothing else I get some steps in and end up in a pub 🤷🏼‍♀️🍻 I must admit that it was a nerve racking thing to actually turn up alone! But within minutes I realised most people were there in the same situation. Everyone therefore felt as vulnerable as I did, and was just as happy to chit chat, as we casually walked along the route that mat was merrily leading, with a joke or two along the way. The prize at the end was obviously reaching the pub 🥂 Again everyone was happy to chit chat away. I've since been on lots of walks and found that the great thing is, because it's a no pressure environment, it really works. I can go when I'm up to it and no problem if I don't. I've met lots of lovely people and as a direct result of this group feel much less socially isolated. I have actually made some genuine friendships that have spread from the group into "real life" It's a great social group, & the added bonus of increasing your stepcount/mobility & maybe your friendship group. Win win! What else can you do for £1 in York!👌🏼

Highly recommend for everyone

This is a social "no pressure" walking group led by the very capable and friendly Matt. As a newcomer to York, this is a relaxed way to get some exercise, learn a bit about York, and have a drink and a chat in a pub. Highly recommend you give it a try!

Very friendly group of individuals run by a great host Matt

I needed to get out of the house and socialise more and I realised I'd have to do that on my own (married) this group is excellent for company, sharing stories and life, getting fresh air and seeing parts of york as a resident I've never been to and ultimately ending up in the pub... What more could I want
