About us
Berkhamsted Walks and Social welcomes all friends, new and established, to our group. The aim of our group is to provide our members with opportunities to meet people with similar interests and to make new friends who want to get out and about in the local area. We offer three walks per week (two midweek and one weekend) in the surrounding countryside. We also offer a range of other events and have a strong commitment to supporting our local community and local events. We organise film nights, theatre trips, concerts, book club, wine club, pub nights, meals out etc.
We are looking for new, committed hosts with fresh ideas, too, to help our local group grow and develop, offering a range of regular and new events to suit the different interests and tastes of our members.
Some events will have a small cost so that the organiser can cover any expenses but most events will remain free of charge. As walks are our most regular events, we ask members to donate £1 towards our costs.
We ask that all members keep their RSVPs up to date and respect the efforts made by all hosts in offering local and varied events for our enjoyment.
Look forward to you joining us at an event soon!

Rex Review:
Master filmmaker Park Chan-wook returns with another delicious slice of nation satire, as Lee Byung-hun plots to bump off the competition.
Byung-hun is family man You Man-su, who lives in a gorgeous home with his wife Miri (Son Ye-jin), their children Si-One and Ri-One, and two beautiful dogs. Man-su is devastated after being laid off from his paper company management role after 25 years, and despite assurances from his wife he’ll find a new job soon, 13 months later he’s stacking boxes in a warehouse.
After a series of calamities, with house foreclosure pending, Man-su becomes truly desperate, and after becoming mildly obsessed with the cool middle manager at Moon Paper, realises the job market is simply too competitive. Wouldn’t it be easier if, let’s say, he thinned out the herd? Yet Man-su isn’t as cut-throat as he fancies himself, and his murder plot isn’t particularly thought out.
Parallels to Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite are understandable, but this easy comparison undermines the specificity of both films. While the two directors are peers with shared interests, and there is undoubtedly some common DNA, No Other Choice boldly confronts erasure of our humanity as we’re homogenised by capitalism.Parking in Berkhamsted is very difficult but there is road parking along Three Close Lane. Please allow time to find somewhere to park. We meet between (or near to) the two doors in the bar.
