Are there toilets on the route? There is a toilet on board the boat at start and finish.
Do I need to bring special equipment? Dress for the weather, bring a notebook and pencil or other device for making notes, hot drinks and some snacks provided, you are welcome to bring a packed lunch to enjoy on the boat after our walk. The boat will be static so you can leave when you are ready.
Can I bring my dog? Assistance dogs are welcome. This walk is in primarily aimed at humans and many dog owners prefer to leave their dogs at home so they can concentrate on the activity and the interactions with other humans. Some group members are nervous of dogs and so a well-behaved dog on the lead could attend if they are able to respect this, please get in touch if you wish to discuss further.
