Walking programme 2012
HERE is the provisional list of walks for next year, which I hope you will find attractive, enjoyable, interesting and varied. We can look forward to more carefree days in our lovely countryside. Everyone is welcome on the walks (UNISON members or not), so bring along your family, friends and colleagues if you like. I have spare copies of this list plus past posters and NEWSHEETS if you would like them.
