Participants can choose from 10km and 20km walks at locations across the UK throughout October, kicking off in Glasgow on Saturday 10th October to mark World Mental Health Day, followed by walks in Liverpool and York on Sunday 11th October and in Manchester on Sunday 18th October.
On Monday 19th October, Newcastle will host the penultimate walk, before culminating in Birmingham, Bristol, Bath, Cardiff, Cornwall, Edinburgh, Hampshire, London and Suffolk on Sunday 25th October.
This year’s event will include new hosted walks in Hampshire and Suffolk, bringing the total number of locations nationwide to 14. The event offers business leaders the chance to reconnect with their team, boost morale and support employee wellbeing while making a positive difference in their local community.
Since launching in 2020 with a small group of participants in London, Walk for Wellbeing has grown into a nationwide industry initiative. Last year alone more than 1,400 participants raised £170,000 for Hospitality Action’s wellbeing and support services.
Craig Prentice, creator of Walk for Wellbeing, said “What started as a simple way to bring people together during a difficult time for hospitality in 2020, six years on, it’s incredibly inspiring to see the event continue to grow each year and unite people across the country. The hospitality industry has always been powered by people, and people thrive when they feel connected.
“Walk for Wellbeing acknowledges the industry’s continued journey of resilience and reconnection and brings together individuals, teams and businesses to champion a positive conversation around wellbeing and celebrate personal connection and support across the industry.”
