A Walk with Friends launches!

“I loved being part of this book being made, I met new friends, walked in new places that are good for me (accessible) and chose the colours of pictures too”

🤝Joining Surrey Choices and rob fairbanks in the launch of this fantastic new Beyond Words title, ‘A Walk with Friends’ was a real treat today.

✨A group of people from Active Prospects UK, Surrey Choices clients and Pro-Active Community members brought the story to life up on the stage, sharing their experience creating this book and their energy in telling the story their way.

👀Great to see old friends and new, and to join Katie Smith who led a senses workshop in the superb sensory garden at West Horsley Place, the most perfect setting.

“This is deff the best bit, the garden is amazing, it’s calm under this sycamore tree and look at all the poppies”

“I’m more confident now I’ve done this book, about what to pack for a walk and don’t wear flip flops!”

🎉Thank you to absolutely everyone we’ve met along the way, Emily Hollins Lucy Alexander artist Belinda, Jackie Doe Lydia Simpson and so many wonderful funders who made the title possible.

✨So pleased to meet Surrey County Council Chair Cllr Tim Hall and to have Olivia Hilton joining the day too, a chance to see why everyone was so excited about this launch.
