WELCOME TO SWAG

We are a mixed social walking group of all ages and abilities based in South Manchester and North Cheshire. Our Winter / Spring programme includes weekends away youth hostelling, Sunday walks, and a variety of social events such as meals out, theatre trips and pub nights.  New members are always offered a warm welcome.

USEFUL INFORMATION ABOUT THE GROUP

Programme of Events

The Group relies on its regular members to organise weekends, walks and social events.  Please help the committee by giving details of any event you would like to volunteer to organise to either Helen (Weekends Away & Sunday walks), Eric (Wednesday Walks) or Michelle (Social Events) at any reasonable time for inclusion in the next programme.  See our website for details of local map reading courses. The closing date for including items in the next programme is 5th April 2020. Copies of this programme are available from Sue P. (the Programme Secretary) or other committee members.
