Join us for this relaxed, supportive morning designed to bring women together through movement, fresh air, and community. This isn’t about pace.It’s not about distance.And it’s definitely not about being ‘fit enough’. It’s about feeling safe, supported, and confident outdoors. All experience levels welcome. 

What is the Plan 

  • 8am Meet & Greet: We will be meeting in the events area car park. A friendly welcome, quick introductions, and a chance to settle in.
  • 8.15am Walk / Run (approx. 45 min/60 mins):We’ll head out together as a group.Walk, jog, run… whatever feels right for you. No one gets left behind. Ever.
    Optional Canicross Demo:If temperatures allow, we’ll have a demo dog showing how canicross works—kit, basics, and how to get started safely.
  • 9.30am Wrap Up:Back together, quick chat, questions, and (most importantly) that “I’m glad I came” feeling.

Please email SkellyWAGS here, to express your interest in this event and they will send a booking form. 

This event is part of our 20th anniversary celebration week at Ranscombe Farm Nature Reserve. It is part of the Ranscombe Connect: Community Participation for Wild Plants and Fungi project which has been made possible through funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Thanks to Lottery Players we have been able to create more opportunities for local people to get involved with Ranscombe Farm Reserve. If you are interested in volunteering at Ranscombe Farm you can contact us here.
