The Great Forum Walk and Talk

21 May 2021, 14:00 - 16:00

The North East

With the end of lockdown now in sight, we’re excited to finally reunite alfresco style for The Great Forum Walk and Talk!

Led by members of the Forum team and taking place in multiple locations across the region, each walk will be unique to the area and will start and finish in the same place.

Your 'tour guides' for the day will be:

  • Elaine - The North Sea Coast, Whitley Bay
  • Jonathan - Roseberry Topping, Teesside

    Marking the return of our in-person events, our Great Forum Walk and Talk will kickstart our new socially-distanced events programme and promises to be a great opportunity to catch-up with fellow Forum members and enjoy the great outdoors. We hope you can join us!


    The Small Print - This event will be delivered in accordance with the Government’s guidance for outdoor gatherings and will be subject to social distancing restrictions.

    This event is weather dependent and may be cancelled at short notice.
