This select walking group started in April 2007 and is aimed at my friends who are in couples and ex-Northern Link members who prefer a distinct and separate entity from the singles scene. We continue to be very successful in organising superb walks, weekends away and social events.
Our walks are not intended to compete with or replace “Northern Link” walks but merely offer an alternative with smaller numbers and a relaxed atmosphere in which both couples and individuals can feel equally at ease. It is a natural development for people who have successfully paired off to evolve away from the mainstream singles scene preferring to avoid the obligation of chatting to new-comers whilst still wanting to maintain the friendships they have made and enjoy the pleasure of walking together as a social group.
Most members believe that “Northern Link” should primarily cater for genuinely unattached people. For it to continue to flourish it ought to give its members every chance of meeting someone special themselves without finding that many of the people on a walk are already spoken for.
You do not necessarily have to be a couple to join "Roy's Roams" but new members are only welcome by personal invitation from Roy or accompanied introduction by an existing member bringing a partner, relation or close friend.
Attendance will incur no obligation or permanent membership and participants will not be expected to support every walk or carry a membership card.
The basic itinerary of Roy’s Roams offers at least one walk every month usually on a Sunday with a fairly wide variety of locations, grades and distances although moderate all day walks of around 8 miles requiring packed lunches are the norm. However, if members are available mid week, Saturday, half day or evening walks are possible. There is also a regular calendar of evening social events like meals out.
If you would like to receive further information please contact Roy and say what is the best way of keeping in touch. If possible provide an email address that you use. If you want to make any suggestions or contributions about the walks or their organisation then please feel free to do so.
Needless to say you will join these walks at your own risk, myself or other walk leaders cannot take any responsibility for your personal safety, loss or damage howsoever caused.
