We start off on the Pennine Way ascending via Jacob's Ladder onto Kinder Scout. We then visit the Noe Stool, the boulder field known as The Wool Packs and Grindslow Knoll, before heading south down Broadlee Bank Tor to join the Pennine Way as it heads back into Upper Booth and then along to Edale. There are some spectacular views to be had from many parts of this walk down into the Noe Valley, the Hope valley and across to Mam Tor.

Come also to our new member's evening

 

Where: Henry's Bar, Cambridge Street, S1 4HP

 

When: first Tuesday of every month, from 7pm (our next meeting will be 1st May)

 

Who is it for: if you're thinking of joining us, or you joined recently, these events are for you!

 

We understand that not all new members are comfortable approaching a big group of strangers, even if they are as lovely as SWG. For this reason we run a new members' evening which is held the first Tuesday of every month from 7pm to 8pm - you can drop in for a drink and a chat at any point between those times. Alice and Edita are part of the committee who are looking forward to meeting you and introducing you to other new members and telling you how the club works.

 

If you can't immediately find us then call Edita on 0753 806 4352.

 

At 8pm, the monthly pub meet of the existing SWG members starts. You are more than welcome to stay and Alice and Edita will do their best to introduce you to potential friends and keep you having a fantastic time!
