Special events
Some of our walks take place outside of our regular schedule. They mark special events and campaigns.
Interfaith Walks
Did you know that Harrow has one of the most religiously active communities in the country? Would you like to know more about the different faiths within your Harrow Community.
Harrow Interfaith celebrates shared values between different faith communities. It promotes understanding and tolerance between people of all faiths and none.
Come and join us for a short walk and get to know more about your local area and the diverse faith groups in it. The walk has been organised in collaboration with Harrow Interfaith to help people learn more about different faiths. It promotes understanding and respect among local communities. It's also a free, enjoyable, friendly health walk led by a trained walk leader.

To celebrate National Walking Month, Conversation Café and Harrow Health Walks are running a series of walks. They'll take place every Tuesday this May from St Peter’s Church. These walks are part of the Conversation Café initiative. It provides a welcoming space for Harrow residents to receive advice, support, and social interaction. The Conversation Café team can advise on adult social care, unpaid carer support, living with a disability, and managing long-term health conditions.
The walks start on Tuesday 6th May. They are 45-minute long, easy-paced, and designed to be accessible to all. This includes wheelchair users and those who are visually impaired. The walk includes numerous benches along the route and toilet facilities at the beginning and end. There are also toilets at the park café, although a drink purchase may be required. You can enjoy the covered pagoda with seating near the café and additional seating inside the café.
All ages over 18 are welcome. Comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing are recommended. Free refreshments are available at the Conversation Café. Join us for a friendly and easy-going walk, and make new friends while enjoying the beautiful surroundings of West Harrow Park.
We look forward to seeing you there!
