A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Walking Sports Festival on Sunday 31 May.
Delivered in partnership with Bristol Walkfest, the event brought together participants from across the community to experience the fun, social and inclusive benefits of walking sports. Throughout the afternoon, attendees had the opportunity to try both Walking Tennis and Walking Rugby in a welcoming and supportive environment.
While some participants had experienced Walking Tennis before, Walking Rugby was a completely new activity for many. It was fantastic to see everyone embracing the challenge, developing new skills and enjoying the opportunity to stay active while meeting new people.
The enthusiasm and energy on display throughout the event were incredible, and several participants left inspired to find local sessions so they could continue their new-found passion for walking sports.
Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered and supported the event. We look forward to seeing many of you again at future Walking Sport sessions.
