Walking Group
Step Count, Laugh Count, Memory Count = OFF THE CHARTS!
The VI Walking Club smashed it yesterday on the North Shields Cultural Trail! We strolled, we explored, we conquered—and of course, we took a cheeky pit stop at How Do You Do for some well-deserved treats. (Calories don’t count on walk days, right?)
Highlights included:
Laughs louder than seagulls
Steps for days (and then some)
Friendships that warm your heart
Want to kick off your 2025 with fun, fresh air, and fantastic company? Join us in the New Year—we’d love to have you!
