What we’re about
This is a social activity group aimed at having some laughs, meeting up with friends both old and new, whilst enjoying the fabulous Cornish landscape!
We are a friendly, welcoming, inclusive group for adults of all ages. With most of the activities: events; dining (including picnics and moonlight feasts); or cultural, based around walks of different lengths and types. So you must be fit enough to walk, but we do so at a relaxed pace and are very laid back.
Walks and events are planned for all over Cornwall and beyond, for various days of the week and at different times of day. Some are only for a couple of hours, most are half a day with some a full day, with a swim, meal or gig along the way. Oh and each month we plan a ‘Mystery Day Mooch Around’ with a couple of challenges, a few surprises and a social event to round the day off.
The Meetup organisation charges every group a subscription to belong to their website, so there is a contribution fee of £2 per event from all attending members to go towards the costs of running this Meetup page. However, you can pay £6 for 6 months and can attend (within reason), as many of the events organised, without paying any further attendance fees during this time. There will be at least 6 events a month across a broad spectrum of interests. You will be expected to pay for those events where there will be additional costs such as meals, gig tickets, admission charges, hospitality, bus/train fares, car parking and public toilet charges…
As a group it is important that every member deserves to be treated with respect and kindness. Any inconsiderate behaviour within the group will not be tolerated and dealt with swiftly.
Group sizes for a walk or event are kept to a manageable size, up to 15 at any one time and some are repeated on a regular basis. Due to issues in the past, for those unable to attend a Meetup they have signed up for, it is important to remove yourself off the list as soon as possible, so others can take your place.
We are all responsible for our own health and safety when attending events, especially if you bring your pet on a walk. The organisers are hosting walks and social events for members and do not hold any qualifications or liability insurance.
It is advisable to always bring good walking footwear and weather appropriate clothing, as some of the paths can get muddy and slippery even in our Summer!
Look forward to seeing you😊
