Walking Tour of Tameside

 

The Tour of Tameside each year is developing into much more than a running event. Volunteers, local residents cheering on the runners, school children studying elements of the race and local businesses are engaging all the time and in 2018 we are delighted to be working with Live Well & Active Tameside on the Walking Tour of Tameside.

Nayereh Kelly, Active Tameside’s Live Active Community Activator has planned four entry level walking routes, which vary in duration and location in and around the race days themselves, on June 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th.

Nez said “I am delighted to be leading the Walking Tour of Tameside for Live Well & Active Tameside this year with the aim to get more people active in the borough at an easy and fun level. The main objective is enjoying the lovely surroundings, a bit of low level exercise and making friendships”.

There is no need to book onto these walking events, you can simply turn up and Nez will be there to welcome you and accompany you around the short route. To find our more see below the dates and locations of the events or visit
