An exploratory walk visiting a church,a community centre, a temple, a nature reserve, a park and seing what else there is to be talked aboutBook on Eventbrite as https://shorturl.at/vu9gJ
We meet outside the new church, have a look in there and the old church and then start our walk down Oldfield Road seeing what and who we might encounter on the way and finishing up in the Broadway where we will seek a suitable cafe (probably Polish) to have our optional chill and chat at the end of the walk.
A walk with a purpose
This walk is part of the Your Voice Your Town project, funded by Ealing Council, supporting a shared goal where Greenford residents selected clean and pleasant as their top priority for change.
As we walk, we’ll gently reflect on questions such as:
what do we understand by 'clean and pleasant'?
what features of the area we are walking in would support this?
where might things be improved?
There's no pressure to speak - you’re welcome to simply listen, observe and enjoy the walk.
What makes these walks different
Since 2016, Talking and Exploring has been bringing people together through walks that focus on both place and people.
For this project, we also:
welcome local residents, newcomers, and visitors alike
reach out to those who may feel less confident, isolated or new to the area
connect with local businesses, community and faith groups where possible
create space for conversation, shared experience and new connections
After the walk
We’ll finish with an optional café stop — a chance to rest, chat and continue the conversation in a relaxed setting.
You’ll also be invited to share your thoughts afterwards. Your feedback helps build a better understanding of how people experience Ealing and contributes to wider community insight.
