Stride and Thrive
Stride and Thrive is a twelve-week walking group supporting adults aged 17+ experiencing mental health difficulties, low mood, anxiety, stress or social isolation.
Delivered on Saturdays, the service offers gentle walks through nature and green spaces across Dartford, Gravesham and Swanley, alongside guided wellbeing discussions and opportunities for social connection.
In a supportive and person-centred environment, service users are encouraged to improve their confidence, wellbeing, routine and physical activity levels at their own pace, while connecting with others in their local community.
