Join Project Active in Discovering London

Looking to take a mindful break in nature?  Join a free guided wellbeing walk through one of East London’s most peaceful green spaces.

Guided by one of our trained, passionate and experienced Park Champion Community Guide, come for a wander around the London Blossom Garden, the wetlands and Alfred’s Meadow. Those areas are known for being a great location to spot the Park’s wildlife and for their peacefulness, which will make it a perfect area for quiet contemplation and reflection.

Researchers have found a fascinating link between physical activity, access to green spaces and a reduced risk of mental health problems, improved mood and increased life satisfaction. This guided tour is available to up to 10 attendees, to ensure that all members are comfortable, relaxed and are able to easily engage if they wish to. It offers a safe space to get out, connect and meet like-minded people whilst learning more about the Park, its incredible biodiversity and green spaces.

Location: Meet Outside Marshgate Building Main Entrance / Marshgate Building, 7 Sidings St, London E20 2AE

What to wear: Please wear clothing you feel comfortable in. 

Walk Lead: Park Champion Volunteers, he will be wearing his pink uniform and ID.

Equipment: A water bottle to stay hydrated. 

Please note: You may not be able to join the walk if you are more than 10 minutes late to the meet point. Please make sure you give adequate time to get to the venue.
