A qualified walk leader guides the group at each of the five locations, with shorter options of 45-minute walks, or a full hour if wanted.
Crawley Borough Council’s Cabinet member for Leisure and Wellbeing, Councillor Chris Mullins, said: “The Leader and two other members of the Cabinet joined the Goffs Park Health Walk last week and saw for themselves the benefits that everyone going on these walks gains from them.

There is no need to book a spot, just arrive in time for the start of the walk at the location listed above. Only a health walk registration form needs to be filled in on the council’s website before anyone’s first walk, or the walk leaders will be carrying forms.
The health walks are not the only form of exercise offered through Crawley Borough Council. There is also the award-winning community tennis programme run by Crawley Wellbeing, and the free-to-use outdoor gym equipment at Tilgate and Goffs parks.
