Preston & District Walking Club
|
We are based in Lancashire in the North West of England but our walks take us round the UK's National Parks, central England, the Lake District, North Wales and even Scotland. |
Corona Virus (COVID-19) - All walks and Events Cancelled
In accordance with the governments wishes to restrict all unnecessary travel and particularly in relation to social distancing, all walks and events have been cancelled until the restriction are lifted.
Lets hope we can all once again enjoy the great outdoors soon.
Walks Programme 2021
We are hoping as a club to resume coach / Local walks (Coach walk most likely in the New Year) and in preparation for this, are asking for leaders to put their names forward for our 2021 programme.
The 2021 programme is now available to view at the end of the 'Programme of Events' page.
This will be filled in as leaders are selected for each destination and walk grade.
You will find two seperate forms that you can fill in this year, one for Coach Walks & one for Sunday Car walks.
Leaders wishing to put their name forward for the 2021 Coach or Local walks programme, may do so by the use of the forms below.

Photo Gallery - Open for business as usual!
With the present situation regarding club walks, we are asking club members to continue sending in photos. The subject matter can be anything you feel may be of interest to other club members.
For example: Why not snap a pic when walking your dog? Whats in bloom in your garden? Photos of any of your activities or pursuits, that will make us all smile.
Email your photos to website@pdwc.org. Please remember to include you name, date and where possible a title with your photos. Happy Snapping!

We are affiliated to the Rambling Association
We are affiliated to the Rambling Association which brings us many benefits and still fits in with out ethos of providing outdoor walking for all.
The Preston and District Walking Club originally started its life in 1932 as The Preston CHA Rambling Club. The club was affiliated to Country Wide Holiday Association hence CHA in the name but in the 1990's the Country Wide Holiday Association ceased to exist along with many other organisations of this type as holiday trends moved away from walking type holidays to package holidays so, in 2007, it was deemed appropriate to re-name the club the Preston and District Walking Club.
