More Path Clearance work on WBAS62 & WBAS10 in the current summer heat!

In all this summer heat our footpaths team have been hard at work in Wootton Bassett ensuring the paths remain clear for walking. See below photographs of the great work. In addition to the clearance, the team also replaced a damaged footpath sign showing the pathway.

Meeting Points

Our group meets at either Marlborough Road / Pipers Rbt or Covington Mini Market Car Park. All locations are in Swindon. The meeting point can be found in the details of each walk. 

Dogs on walks

It is our policy not to allow dogs, except assistance dogs, on any of our led walks. There are two reasons for this, which we hope dog owners will understand.

Many of our walks cross grazing land where there is or may be livestock. Although deaths and injuries to walkers caused by cattle are rare, most of the recorded incidents involve the presence of a dog.

Most dogs are well trained and cause no problems when walking with a group, but unfortunately this is not true of all dogs. Dogs which run around amongst the group, jump up at people or react noisily when meeting other dogs can cause annoyance to other walkers and detract from their enjoyment of the walk.
