Fit 4 Life walking group was started by the Monmouth County Council in March 2013 and focuses on the those who enjoy a short simple walk (1 hour) and their friends and carers. It takes the form of a one-hour walk on flat ground (fields and pavements) in and around Monmouth.

The ‘Fit 4 Life’ group meet on the grass just behind/beyond the car-parking area outside Bridges for a 10 am start on Monday mornings. We are covered by Bridges’ insurance arrangements, and four of our walkers have undergone a one-day training session and qualify as walk leaders.

There is no fee and no long-term commitment — the group meets every Monday including bank holidays, and if you can’t make it or don’t feel like walking on that day you don’t have to let anyone know — at 10 am the group moves off with whoever’s there by then.

Afterwards many of us adjourn to the nice cafe area in the Monnow Vale Hospital.

The walks are a good way of getting to meet people, and also a great way to familiarise yourself with parts of Monmouth that you may not have visited before!
