Walk and Talk around Sharrow

We’ve had many new people signing up for classes recently who have only just arrived in Sheffield. So today we invited them to come on a walk and talk. We visited Mount Pleasant Park, U-Mix Centre and went to Heeley City Farm to say hello to the animals! If you’d like to join our classes please enrol here.

Today we had a socially distanced walking quiz at Weston Park. We all split into small groups and enjoyed looking round the park, answering the questions and feeding the ducks and pigeons!

Outdoor Activities

We had our first socially distanced outing this week with a customised walking quiz. Small groups of 2-4 people explored the Sheffield Botanical Gardens together maintaining social distancing. It was lovely to see both staff and students enjoying themselves. We hope to be able to organise similar activities outdoors during August and September.
