Nowton Park, Bury St Edmunds

Bereaved parents and volunteer walk facilitators, Teresa and Shirley are planning their next walk at Nowton Park in Bury St Edmunds for Saturday 28th October. Meet at 10.15 am for a 10.30 am start.

Shirley and Teresa write:

This is a supportive group walk and all bereaved parents, adult bereaved siblings and grandparents will be made to feel very welcome. These walks are free and are designed to offer you an opportunity to socialise and chat with others who understand, as well as to offer some exercise to support our mental and physical wellbeing. If you haven’t yet walked with us, please don’t feel daunted or apprehensive about joining. You will very quickly find yourself in a friendly, supportive community of other bereaved parents.

The walk will be at a steady pace and fairly short at approximately 2 miles (for around an hour), and our route will take us through short sections of wooded area.

We will have time for a tea/coffee at the park café after the walk for those who wish to join us there.

There are public toilets available by the café from 8am – 6pm, including an accessible toilet. The park is free to enter but you will have to pay for parking if you need it.

We look forward to meeting those who have walked with us before, and also welcoming those who are new to our walks.

We will be sending out a welcome email about a week before the walk to give you more information and meeting point details. This email comes from info@tcf.org.uk so please look out for it (please also be aware that it can sometimes go into junk or spam folders, so do check there if you have registered for the walk and haven't received details)

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.
