“The ‘Fit 4 Life’ Monday walking group was started by the Monmouth County Council in March 2013 and focuses on the those who enjoy a simple short 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 meets on the grass just behind/beyond the car-parking area outside Bridges for a 10 am start on Monday mornings. 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!
