Free sensory walk on Saturday 23 September


All are welcome to join this gentle sensory stroll through Southwark Park where we will learn more about the history, flora and fauna of Southwark Park.

As we go we will learn more about how to support people living with dementia to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the outdoors.

The walk is primarily aimed at people who have dementia and their carers, friends and family but everyone is welcome.

The walk is run in partnership with the Alzheimers Society, Cool Tan Arts and Transport for London.
