One to One Walk & Talks

If group walks aren't your thing, or you'd rather build up your confidence first, we have availability on various days and at various times to run one-to-one walk & talk sessions.


These sessions are 30-60 minutes and give you the chance to talk to a trained peer supporter in a safe, confidential and no-pressure environment. Multiple slots can be booked if availability allows.


Book your slot by private message by clicking the 'Message to Book' button below
