Why We Don’t Charge For Our Community Walks…
and how you can support us….
At Roam & Wonder, our community walks are at the heart of what we do. These walks are designed to bring people together, explore beautiful natural landscapes, and encourage everyone to enjoy the mental and physical benefits of being outdoors, without any barriers. That's why we’ve made the conscious decision to keep our walks free.
We believe that everyone should have access to nature, regardless of their financial situation. We understand that sometimes, life gets busy and it’s easy to feel disconnected from the world around us. Our walks are an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect - with nature, with others, and with ourselves.
By offering these walks at no charge, we hope to create an inclusive, welcoming space where people can gather and enjoy a shared experience. The magic of our community lies in the diverse backgrounds, interests, and stories that everyone brings to the table - whether you’re new to hiking or a seasoned adventurer, there’s a place for you here.
However, running these walks still requires resources: time, energy, and support from wonderful local businesses. That’s why we’re so grateful to have such a strong, kind-hearted community that believes in what we do. If you’re looking to contribute or support the continuation of these free walks, there are several ways you can make a difference:
1. Donate
Whether it’s a one-time donation or a regular contribution, every penny helps us keep our walks accessible and open to all. Your donation helps cover the costs of organising, supporting, and maintaining these wonderful experiences.
2. Spread the word
If you've enjoyed one of our walks, share your experience with friends and family. The more people who know about our community walks, the more people we can inspire to get outside and connect with nature. You can also leave a review on Google Reviews or share your experience on social media and tagging us @roam_and_wonder. It helps us reach even more like-minded adventurers and grow our community!
3. Support our partners
Many of the local businesses we work with support our community walks in various ways. By shopping with them or using their services, you're directly helping us keep these events going.
4. Join us regularly
Your participation matters! The more people who join our walks, the stronger our community grows. It’s not just about numbers, it’s about connection. You can book your space on any upcoming walks using our booking form.
5. Join a retreat
If you love our community walks, why not take it to the next level? Our luxury hiking retreats offer the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, with stunning walks, nourishing food, and plenty of time to unwind. You can also book a private retreat for your group - whether it's friends, family, or a corporate team looking for a unique getaway. Every retreat helps support our free community walks, so it’s a win-win!
While our walks are free to attend, your support—through donations, word of mouth, or any other way—is invaluable to us. Thank you for helping us create a space where nature is accessible to everyone. Together, we can continue to connect, restore, and thrive in the great outdoors.
We can’t wait to walk with you!
