Golden Valley Canal walk with lunch at Long Table; pre-pay to book

At Long Table every hot meal served is pay-as-you-can, so that food is accessible to everyone, regardless of means. It’s not about charity – it's about dignity, equality, and a community supporting neighbours who need a little help.

Last year they served 35,000 meals, and almost half of those were provided at below what it cost to make them, or at no cost at all.

Sounds good, right? (more here: https://thelongtablestroud.com/)

We will walk out-and-back for 2.5 hours, which is around 5 miles and it will be flat, mostly on the toepath. Then lunch at Long Table, where there are usually two options, one of which is vegan. We won't know until we get there what the food is, so you need to have a broad tastes, but it is always wholesome.

Seconds and thirds are free. Drinks and cakes are extra.

There is also an upcycled furniture store here, toy exchange and bookshop for a browse.

The fee for this walk is £12.50, which covers the lunch. Do pay more if you want/can. That whole amount will be given to Long Table in exchange for our lunch tokens.
We purchase the tokens on the day and hand them to you.

Dogs welcome, and there are toilets at Long Table.

Parking: the map and W3W send you to a car park that is signed as private, but it is available for use at weekends and is free.
