Community Engagement Wellbeing Walk: The Line
This community networking event for lovely folk working across creative health, arts, nature, community engagement and education, to come together and share stories, woes, ideas, while spending time outdoors in nature. As well as the people we support through our work, it’s also super important we support our own wellbeing so you’re invited to a Community Engagement Wellbeing Walk on The Line.
Since the walk is about community engagement, everyone is welcome to bring someone else along – whether a colleague or a friend. We hope to see lots of you there and please let me know if you have any special requirements.
Meet: Splash Fountain at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park (nearest station Stratford)
Overview:
- 1.5 hours walking
- Mindfulness exercises to open and close the walk
- Creative activity at half-way point
End: Cody Dock (nearest station Star Lane DLR or Canning Town tube)
