Greenhead Park Walk

For those who would prefer, there will be the opportunity to meet at Huddersfield Bus Station or Huddersfield Train Station at 10 am. This will add approximately 15 minutes to the walk.

The park is mainly flat and has tarmac paths. We plan to walk several circuits of the park at a gentle pace. Feel free to do as many or as few circuits with us as you wish. We are aiming to spend around 2 to 3 hours together. The park is not in an isolated position and so you will be able to make your way, from any point within it, back to where you parked your car or where you are able to access public transport services for the journey home.

The Conservatory Cafe within the park serves a selection of hot and cold meals and drinks, including snacks and cakes. There are public toilets located at the top end of the park adjacent to the tennis courts and also within the Conservatory Cafe.

As the weather can be unpredictable at this time of year, we have been advised to remind you that you take part in the walk at your own risk. Please bring suitable footwear and waterproofs. Dogs are welcome and must be kept on a lead initially but can be let off at the owner’s discretion once the walk is underway.

There is a limited space pay and display car park to the rear of the Conservatory Cafe. Please note that car parking, in the immediate vicinity, can be limited. However, as this walk is on a Sunday in winter, parking will hopefully not be problem.

All bereaved parents, grandparents and adult bereaved siblings are very welcome. Please note that if you bring along a friend or relative with you for initial support, they will be unable to join us for the walk itself unless they are also a bereaved parent, grandparent or adult bereaved sibling. If you have not walked with us before, please do not feel apprehensive about joining us on your own. You will find we are a friendly and supportive community of others similarly bereaved. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday 12th February 2023.

With compassion, Julie, Lynne and Leanne.
