Walk for Wellbeing with Ray of Sun Adventures

A series of eight monthly guided walks running from April to November across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, and Mid Wales.

Led by Janire, a qualified and insured Mountain Leader from Ray of Sun Adventures, the programme is designed specifically for people living with or recovering from cancer. 

These free, beginner-friendly sessions offer safe and supportive outdoor experiences to help improve physical health, rebuild confidence, and nurture emotional wellbeing. Walks are gentle and slow-paced, suitable for all fitness levels, and delivered with compassion and understanding. 

Through accessible routes and nature-based movement, participants can gradually rebuild strength and stamina, reduce stress and feelings of isolation, and reconnect with what their bodies are capable of after treatment. 

Just as importantly, the walks create a sense of community. Participants share space with others who understand the impact of cancer, without any pressure to talk or disclose personal details. Whether someone prefers quiet reflection or gentle conversation, they can feel supported simply by being among people who ‘get it’. 

More than just a walk, this programme offers connection, belonging, and encouragement – helping participants rediscover confidence and build lasting engagement with the outdoors for long-term wellbeing and recovery.
