Weekly Wellbeing Walks

Slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and appreciate the beautiful outdoors. The Woodland Walk surrounding the campus provides the University community an opportunity to disconnect from any stresses and reconnect with the environment.

Guided 30-minute walks take place every Monday, led by Sam Cadwallader, Engagement and Wellbeing Manager at Sport Lancaster, and all abilities are welcome.

The walks commence from University House Reception at 12.15pm.

Move and Groove

Every Tuesday, 12.30-1.15pm, Chaplaincy Centre, Led by Michele Aldridge
