About this Event
Join us for a walk in Sefton Park to enjoy the trees, lakes and historic features such as the Palm House and statues nearby. There are great photo opportunities for those who would like to bring a camera. All entrances, pathways, and facilities (including the café and toilets) are fully accessible and wheelchair friendly.
Meet outside Oasis in the Park Cafe, at 10.45am for a 11.00am start to the walk (see photo of cafe below).

If you haven't been to any MAA events before, look out for Liz on her mobility scooter and other volunteers wearing sunflower lanyards, with Jack leading the walk.
After the walk, there will be the option to go to Oasis in the Park Cafe, for lunch, or just a drink and an ice cream. Those who prefer to bring their own food and drink can find a seat in the park to eat their lunch outside.
