Allerton Country Walk & Talk, Liverpool, Meeting others in cancer loss 23.05.25

Who is this walk for?
This walk is for adults (18+) who have lost a loved one to cancer. It’s a space to connect with others who truly understand, in a supportive and relaxed environment.

Where will we be walking?
The walk will be around the Allerton countryside and will last approximately an hour. It is designed to be gentle and enjoyable.

Feeling nervous?
We understand that joining a group like this might feel daunting – it’s completely normal to feel unsure. Many of our walkers have felt the same way at first. Rest assured, this is a welcoming and supportive space. You can take things at your own pace, and there’s no pressure to talk more than you feel comfortable. Here is a quote from one of our previous walkers:

“It was a small enough group that we could engage in deeper conversation. We all went for coffee afterwards. Honestly, the best grief event I’ve ever attended. Thank you Loss Foundation!!”

What to expect:

• A small group of up to 10 walkers to keep things intimate and comfortable.
• A friendly volunteer host who will walk and chat with you, making sure everyone feels at ease.
• The chance to spend time outdoors with people who’ve experienced similar loss.

We ask that you let us know in advance if you’d like to bring a guest (as spaces are limited) and kindly note that pets and children cannot join the walk.

What are the timings for the day?
Walkers will be meeting at 10am. We aim to complete the walk just over an hour later, at approximately 11am. This will be a very casual walk.
Who is the host?
Our lovely volunteer Jack will be hosting this walk. He will have a yellow Loss Foundation sign and will be wearing a lanyard.


Do I need to be an experienced walker?
Not at all! This walk isn’t about fitness or speed. It’s about being outdoors, meeting others, and finding comfort in shared experiences. Whether you’re a seasoned walker or a total beginner, you’re very welcome.
