Weekly Greenway Walks

Looking for a friendly way to meet other mums while getting out of the house? Join The Safe Mum Space for their free weekly Greenway Walk every Monday morning in Cleckheaton.

The group meets at 10am and enjoys a relaxed walk along the Greenway, offering a chance to get some fresh air, enjoy gentle exercise and chat with other local mums in a welcoming, supportive environment. Mums are welcome to attend with children of any age or on their own.

Many mums attend solo for the first time, so if you're feeling nervous, you're not alone. The group is friendly and inclusive, and organiser George is happy to chat beforehand if that would help you feel more comfortable.
