Sloane Square circular – hedonism, high fashion, and a hospital

Sloane Square circular – hedonism, high fashion, and a hospital

This social walk, led by volunteer Robert Hall, is presented by Central London Humanists for everybody who desires a fulfilling, worthwhile and evidence-based path in life. Humanists believe we have just one life to be lived rationally and well, with compassion for others.

This event is a guided walk of +/- 2.25 hours pointing out places of interest. We will be walking 3.6 Km / 2.25 miles.

This walk proceeds along The King’s Road where anyone who was anyone could be found in the 1960’s. Whilst updated since then it retains a prestigious and trendy vibe. After a brief glimpse of the River Thames we return to near Sloane Square for refreshments passing several notable buildings along the way. This area has always been popular with famous and wealthy people and we’ll encounter plenty of blue plaques including one for a scandalous atheist!

The formal bit:
These walks are not suitable for dogs, sorry.

CLH events are 18+ unless accompanied by a parent or guardian.
If you have signed up but find you can't attend, please change your RSVP on Meetup (it’s very easy to do) as soon as possible so that a more accurate number of attenders can be estimated.

You are responsible for your own actions and safety; there is no liability on the walk leader or CLH for anything that may happen on the walk.

You must be able to keep up with the walk leader at 4 Km/h (2.5 mph) for 5 Km (3 miles). It is participants' responsibility to safely cross roads.

Where appropriate, pedestrian controlled lights will be used and obeyed unless it is obvious that the whole group can cross safely.

When the group stops at a point of interest, please be mindful not to block pavements so members of the public can pass by safely.

Don’t forget this is the UK and it may rain at any time! The walk will go ahead whatever the weather unless conditions are dangerous so please bring clothing for all seasons.

A donation of £3 to Central London Humanists would be appreciated.

The majority of Central London Humanists events are free, but we welcome a £3 contribution per head. This helps towards the running and organising of events, as well as various admin expenses. If you can't attend and would still like to contribute, or would prefer to pay online, please click here.
