Join ‘Connecting Steps’ and take a walk outside!
Step outside, meet someone new or join with a person you know, and explore fresh perspectives during this 2 km walk filled with thought provoking questions along the way. You will head out in small groups or pairs, connect your ideas, and who knows, you might even win a prize.
